Get Hooked podcast episode 7 is here and this time around we are talking about all things Slow Down, Move Over. In this episode, we welcome back special guest, Angela Roper Barnett, a 24-year towing industry leader and Executive Director of four state tow associations, AZ, GA, TN, and UT to talk about #MoveOver Day, the importance of nationwide Move Over laws, and how to get involved in local events. Together we also discuss why every 6 days a tow truck operator is killed and what measures can be taken to stop these preventable deaths. We break down Move Over laws, general public awareness among motorists of these laws, and what the towing industry is doing to increase that awareness and make roads safer for tow operators.
Tune in to get more information on National #MoveOver Day on October 17th, 2020, the numerous tow truck parades, local events being held across the nation, and the ways you can get involved.
At HONK, we’re doing our part to help raise awareness of nationwide "Move Over" laws in an effort to further protect the safety of tow truck professionals and other emergency first responders. We’ve put together a public service announcement (PSA) we want to share with all motorists. Do your part and help us spread the word - share this video on all your socials.
