MEMORANDUM

Posted: December 5, 2024 04:14 PM
From: Representative Stephanie Borowicz
To: All House members
Subject: Legislation Amending Title #75 -- Towing Regulations (Former HB 240)
 
In the near future, I intend to reintroduce legislation to ease regulations on the towing industry to allow for safer operating procedures.  Recently, in my district, there was a tragic accident where a tow truck driver, James Corl, was killed by a vehicle that crashed into his truck as he attempted to dismantle a disabled tractor trailer combination he was towing.  Mr. Corl had been in the towing business for 52 years and was a leader in his community.

Currently, in Pennsylvania, you can only tow combinations under certain strict parameters and on certain roadways.

Please join me in supporting this legislation to ease regulations on our tow truck drivers and increase safety on the roads across the Commonwealth.

Previous co-sponsors:  Hamm, Burgos, Leadbeter, Zimmerman, Rowe and Gillen


 



Introduced as HB188
