Flatbed Towing

Flatbed towing is the safest way to tow. Next to your home, your car may be the largest investment you will make. Protect it by using a flatbed tow truck. With traditional towing, small pebbles and debris from the tow truck have the propensity to impact your expensive paint job and crack your windows. With traditional towing, your car can sway and rock which makes it dangerous for pedestrians and passing vehicles. Elect to have flatbed towing and you won’t be disappointed, and flatbed towing offers more peace of mind. Read More...

Flat Tire? Call Sumter Towing

• Safety Tips For Changing A Flat Tire:
• #1 It's always safest to get a professional to do it for you! Otherwise, be sure to be safe by following these guildelines below
•  Get As Far Away from The Road way As You Can
• Whether you’re on two-lane blacktop or a huge superhighway, you need to get your car as far out of the way as possible. If you can put the flat tire on the side of the car facing away from traffic then you’re already much safer than you were where you started.
• Clearly Mark to Other Drivers That You Are Experiencing An Emergency
• Turning on your hazard lights will let other drivers know there’s something wrong, but that’s just a start. Portable road cones or signs to help direct traffic into the lane away from your car are needed and road flares help. This lets other drivers know to give you room to change your tire as safely as possible.
• Make Sure You Have Solid, Flat Ground For Your Jack
• Before you can change your flat, you need to jack the car up. The jack needs to be set against the frame of the vehicle to bear the weight, and it also needs to be set on flat ground that’s sturdy. If you jack your car up at an angle, the jack will likely slip and could cause severe injury! Or costly mistakes can cause your car could roll backward, or down an incline. These risks are bad enough even in normal circumstance, but on a busy road they can get even worse, they can be deadly.
• Be Aware of Your Surroundings
• It might seem like common sense, but if you’re changing a flat tire on a busy road you need to be aware of the traffic around you. No matter how many careful you are or what signs you put out, there is always a danger as long as there is any movement around you and your vehicle. If you have someone with you it’s a good idea to have that person act as a lookout.

Please Follow The Law, Slow Down, Move Over

Drive Safe, Be Safe It is not uncommon to see emergency scenes, vehicular issues or work zones on the side of the roads. Here are some tips to keep in mind when coming across an emergency scene or work zone. · Keep vehicle under control. · Proceed with due caution. · Significantly reduce vehicle speed. · Yield the right of way by making a lane change into a lane not next to the emergency equipment or work equipment if on a highway with at least four lanes, with at least two lanes proceeding in the same direction. · If changing lanes is not possible or unsafe, maintain a safe speed for road conditions. · Endangering temporary work zone or emergency personnel is considered a misdemeanor punishable by a fine. Obeying this law can save a life and prevent injury. Move Over, SC! · State law requires motorists to “move over” into an adjacent lane whenever possible when passing an emergency scene or temporary work zone.  (South Carolina Department of Public Safety)

​In South Carolina, as well as in the majority of other states, the rule that requires drivers to "Slow Down and Move Over" is an essential safety measure. On the road, the law was drafted with the intention of protecting those who respond to emergencies and those who operate tow trucks. In order to comply with this regulation, motorists are required to slow down and, if at all feasible, move over to the next lane while approaching emergency vehicles, such as tow trucks, that are stopped on the side of the road and have flashing lights. It is impossible to overestimate the significance of this rule, as it makes a significant contribution to the protection of the lives of those who are employed in hazardous conditions along the side of the road.

Those who operate tow trucks and those who respond to emergencies, such as police officers, firefighters, and emergency medical technicians, frequently find themselves working in hazardous circumstances such as those in which passing automobiles might pose a substantial threat. These personnel are particularly susceptible to danger in Sumter because of the tremendous volume of traffic that occurs on the city's highways and roadways. The rule minimizes the chance of accidents that are caused by drivers who are distracted, speeding, or ignorant of the presence of emergency vehicles on the roadside. This is accomplished by mandating that cars slow down and move over.

The Slow Down, Move Over legislation, which is enforced in Sumter, South Carolina, is not just a legal requirement but also a moral imperative. By doing so, it guarantees that those individuals who devote their lives to assisting other people will be able to carry out their responsibilities without the danger of being maimed by passing automobiles. The law contributes to the creation of a safer working environment for these professionals, which in turn serves to reduce the number of fatalities and accidents that occur by the side of the road. The severity with which South Carolina approaches this matter is reflected in the fact that people who break this rule face the possibility of receiving large fines and other consequences.

In order to educate drivers about the need of adhering to this regulation, public awareness initiatives in Sumter and around the state of South Carolina have been extremely important. The purpose of these efforts is to highlight the fact that slowing down and moving over is a straightforward yet efficient method of protecting those who safeguard humans. It may be concluded that the Slow Down, Move Over rule is absolutely necessary in order to guarantee the safety of all emergency vehicles, including tow trucks, in the city of Sumter, South Carolina.
