Tow Industry Week published a call for drastic change in tow industry safety after at least 16 tow operators were killed in on-highway incidents during 2024, with two more killed internationally, according to Tow Industry Week. The editorial argued that incremental safety improvements are not sufficient and the industry needs systemic reform.
Operator takeaway
Sixteen operators killed in one year prompted a call for systemic change — if your company's safety program has not been updated since 2024, the industry is telling you it is not enough.
