Don’t Be the Next Tragedy – Get Protected
Here is what some of the experts are saying about being prepared for roadside emergencies:
-AAA, Esurance, Farmers, Geico and 21st century ALL recommend that Emergency Discs are carried in ALL vehicles.
-Roadside Discs are “an emergency staple” – esurance.
-Farmers Insurance (they know a thing or two, because they have seen a thing or two) goes onto to say this;
-Getting Stuck on the highway is not only stressful but also extremely risky. Poor visibility and high traffic can put you in danger just checking your ties and engine on the side of the road. Always keep a set of road Discs on hand so you can warn other motorists of your presence and create a safety zone between you and oncoming traffic.
Farmers, we couldn’t have said it better ourselves!
The Emergency Roadside Disc by 1tac.com will help prevent these needless tragedies. Easily deploy these with a single push of a button, and they will be visible to oncoming motorists from over 5000 feet.
The Dangers of a Disabled Vehicle
When a car is disabled, a dangerous situation arises—especially if the vehicle was disabled at night. A good flashlight, some know-how and careful car positioning may not be enough. Drivers are urged to have a great deal of safety when managing a breakdown, otherwise they may be nearly invisible to the passing eye—normally from a car.
Every year, different organizations create National Roadside Traffic Safety Awareness months to prepare drivers in the event of a roadside breakdown. Several holidays are particularly dangerous for drivers “just waiting for the tow truck,” including:
-Labor Day Weekend
-Fourth of July Weekend
-Memorial Day Weekend
Between impaired drivers, dark driving hours and unfamiliar holiday travel routes, these periods are especially dangerous for those handling a disabled vehicle. This isn’t to say every other day of the year isn’t dangerous, however. Drivers involved in nighttime crashes are still more likely than not to be impaired—almost 60-percent likely, in fact, between midnight and 3 a.m.
1Tac offers one of the best solutions around to protect drivers who’ve stalled on the side of the road. Discs reflect oncoming light while sending out their own rays. Visible up to 5,000 feet by oncoming motorists, the discs will indicate your position to any who may be passing by.
