THIS is a danger all emergency service providers as well as towing agencies face everytime we are on the roadway. The crew of this unit had just moved away from the vehicle when the impact occurred.

Last night, Shrewsbury Volunteers were on I83 for a motorcycle accident. While fighting the fire and with traffic cones in place a secondary accident t occurred right next to us. Three vehicles were involved.

Distracted driving is one of the most common causes of accidents. When approaching accident scenes SLOW DOWN, PAY ATTENTION, KEEP MOVING. We want to return home alive.

Shrewsbury Volunteers, one of the first in Pennsylvania, placed the HAAS traffic warning system on our engines and heavy rescue squad to alert motorists of emergency incidents on the Waze traffic apps. Google Maps is currently working on adding this feature. The HAAS app displays our apparatus on roadways to alert you.

Safety is number 1. Our personnel thank you for keeping us safe by paying attention while driving
