HAAS Alert and the International Towing Museum are partnering to protect tow fleets from struck-by fatalities.
Since 2005, the International Towing and Recovery Museum has commemorated tow operators lost in the line of duty at the Wall of the Fallen and supported their surviving family members through the Survivor Fund. Since then, the problem of towing line-of-duty deaths has only gotten worse.
Despite hazard lights, safer vehicles, and Move Over Laws in every state, motorists still fail to slow down and drive cautiously when passing by tow operators. Studies show that most drivers only have two seconds to react before impact once they see emergency lights. Giving drivers advance warning can reduce the chances of a collision by 90%.
