AARP Smart Driving Program

This article from AARP hits close to home as I witnessed my father
going through the pains of  having to stop driving.  ARTICLE

Actually the Smart Driver program helps seniors stay on the
road.........literally.  With tips and tricks to keep the senior safe
as well as everyone else on the road.

But there are tell tale signs of when it's time to
stop driving - and my father had every single one,
leading him to make the decision on his own to
step out from behind the wheel.

10 Signs that it's time to limit or stop driving:

1.  Almost crashes, with frequent "close calls".

2.  Finding dents and scratches on your car,
mailbox, fence, etc.

3.  Getting lost in familiar locations.

4.  Having trouble seeing or following traffic signs.

5.  Response time not being what it used to be.

6. Misjudging.

7.  Experiencing road rage.

8.  Distracted on the road.

9.  Hard time backing up.

10.  Multiple driving tickets.

In Celebration of Earth Day

Earth Day turns 46 on Friday 4/22/2016!

On April 22, 1970, 20 million people across the country demonstrated
in support of saving the environment.  Since then, Americans have
become environmentally conscious and there have been great strides in
reducing waste and pollution, but much more still needs to be done.

How's your carbon footprint doing?


We can all do a little bit more to make a big difference.

Follow Up: Jason Schultz Tow Truck Driver



Trent Sheldon killed Preferred Towing's tow truck driver Jason Schultz this past 
January while he was working to tow out a vehicle of a ditch. Trent has been 
out on bond since pleading guilty March 1.  Sentencing is scheduled for May 19th for
operating a vehicle while intoxicated causing death, a 15 year felony.

18 year old Trent Sheldon has been out on bond awaiting sentencing and
it has just been discovered that while out on bond this kid has
continued to test positive for marijuana.

What?  How can this be?  Definitely a violation of his bond and puts
the public in danger, don't you think?


It's bad enough that two young lives were shattered.
Time for Trent to do the time for his crime, although
this will never bring 28 year old Jason Schultz back
to life.

We're continuing to bring awareness to the Move Over law,
It Saves Lives.

Call the Professionals!

Let's face it, there are times in our life where we 
just have to hire a professional.  
Professionals provide services that we need
in order to properly function in the world!

- Your wealth manager at the bank
- Your CPA at tax time
-  Your dentist when you have a toothache!

Well, a towing company is just that, 
a professional serviceWe're there when you need
emergency road service, or if you have a fender bender or
when you need to have your precious cargo towed!
Lowriders are our specialty!

So be sure to call us when you need 
professional towing services.  We've been serving
Harford County and surrounding cities for
over 25 years.

I revived this post once again because I'm infuriated at
stupidity!  I'm so tired of reading negative articles about tow truck companies.
I'm sure there are some rotten apples, but not the majority of companies.
You have car trouble and we provide a service and yes, there is a fee.
Depending on the situation different fees would apply.  It's really a 
simple business transaction.

There is nothing that makes you feel more vulnerable than getting in your 
car and it won't start.  You're stranded, so you call a tow truck company.
Why not be IN GRATITUDE that there is a service that will
come to you, wherever you are 24/7 and get you and
your vehicle to safety.

Be in Gratitude!

Remembrance Page

For several months I've been blogging about the
Move Over Law and most especially about loss
of life, the lives of tow truck operator's.  I wanted to find
a way to keep the flame burning, to keep the memories
alive and then it came to me to create a Remembrance Page.

Remembrance

This is a small list that I will build upon and as one
tow truck operator commented "we are competitors in
business, but we are family". That's what it's about.
Remembering family.

 We will continue to remember and honor 
the lives of the fallen tow truck operator's.
