Think you're the best? Being a pro doesn’t mean skipping the basics. Check your height. Most trucks have it posted for a reason. Bridge strikes are 100% preventable. #CheckYourHeightKnowItsRight

🚨 Every part of New York? Hot. 🚨 Your car? Hotter. Your attitude when driving? Let’s keep that cool. Temps are up, and patience can melt fast. Take a breath. Sip some water. Ease up on the gas. You can’t control the weather, but you can control your driving.

Thank you to Jen and Dan from our Chatham yard for visiting with Kinderhook Parks & Rec to show the kids what we do, how we do it and why. Safety is our top priority and it begins with our youth! #SafetyFirst

👀 Take the Time for Pedestrian Safety - When turning right, look both ways. It only takes a moment to ensure the safety of pedestrians. Stay cautious, save lives.

We know it’s not always possible to move over. But when it is - DO IT! And if you can’t? SLOW DOWN! Lives are on the line - every single day. We asked nicely. Now we’re shouting because lives depend on it!
