But it's a PURRRR-fect spot to get warm! 🐾🐈 When temps drop, cats & wildlife may curl up near a warm car engine. Check your vehicle for hiding critters before you turn on the engine ⬇️ ✔️ honk your horn ✔️ tap your car hood ✔️ check the tires ✔️ give animals time to leave

“I’m about to be hit.” Those were Interstate Maintenance Contractor Randy’s words before a distracted driver traveling approx 70 mph crashed into his truck, despite being the warning lights being activated. During #CrashResponderSafetyWeek, remember: Lives are on the line.

It’s #CrashResponderSafetyWeek. A father and son know the dangers of roadside work all too well. While responding to a crash, the father was struck from behind. His son received the call and responded to the scene. Slow down. Pay attention. Move over. #MoveOver
