Have you been wondering about these?...
Or why you are seeing more of these on the roads?
Well...it's to prevent more of these-
Today I attended a TIME (Traffic Incident Management Enhancement) meeting in Madison. The State of Wisconsin brings all divisions of emergency service providers (police, fire, ems, towing companies, and road project engineers) together to discuss ways to make Wisconsin a safer place to travel.
I'll be honest. It's not great for business. ;)
But it is great for you, the citizens and visitors to Wisconsin.
Since I have started attending these meetings several years ago, I can honestly say there has been a noticeable decrease in accidents in our county and towing coverage area.
- Part of the initiative is to bring all members to a common understanding of Traffic Incident scenes.
- The other part is to prevent accidents from happening in the first place.
I know it it might not seem that interesting to most, but do think it is good to know the benefits we receive from paying our taxes. It helps us better understand that there is a global perspective that is helping keep us safe.
