Move Over, It Saves Lives

The only reason we keep talking about the Move Over Law is because
as member's of the towing industry we believe it is our duty to bring
awareness to this topic that directly affects tow truck drivers and their families.

Here is another story of a hit and run crash that killed
tow truck driver Roger Perez-Borotto in Pinellas County, Fl.

He was just doing his job helping a stranded motorist on the
side of the road.

A Go Fund Me account has been established to
help Roger's wife and 4 year old daughter.


The towing industry has their job to do too, companies
need continual training for their team on how to be safe on the road. 

We do our best here at George's Custom Towing.
Safety is a priority.


MOVE OVER, IT SAVES LIVES

We are doing our best to get the message
out to the community where we work.
