Crash Responder Safety Week
State of Alabama Proclamation
This week, the Governor of Alabama has officially recognized Crash Responder Safety Week, a reminder that every law enforcement officer, firefighter, EMT, tow operator, DOT worker, and roadside responder has a family waiting on them to come home.
Yet every single day, these men and women are put in danger because drivers fail to slow down or move over. It’s not optional.
📌 It. Is. The. Law. 📌
Our responders perform life-saving work on the side of all busy highways, in dangerous conditions of all kinds, and at all hours of the day and night. Too many are being injured or killed simply because someone chose not to pay attention, was distracted, or refused to move over!
As this proclamation states, Alabama is committed to protecting those who protect you. But it takes ALL of us doing our part.
Please Slow Down. Move Over. Pay Attention.
Every second you give them is a second that might save a life.
Our family as well as many others, ask for prayers for the tow truck driver that was involved in the recent roadside incident that happened on HWY 20. Please lift him, his family, and Paul’s wrecker service team up as they navigate the days ahead.
Let’s honor our responders not just with words…
but with our actions behind the wheel.
