Over 500 roadside workers killed since 2020. On average, the industry loses a tow operator every 7 days. Congress is responding with two bipartisan bills: → Safe Roads for Those Who Serve Act → Preventing Roadside and Work Zone Deaths Act of 2026 Together they push for better data collection, mandatory state safety plans, a national public awareness campaign, and new safety requirements tied to federal infrastructure grants. All of it will reshape what fleets, tow providers, and service networks are expected to document on every road call. Next week we're breaking both bills down. What they cover, how they differ, and what the companies touching this work every day should be preparing for. Led by Senator David McCormick (R-PA) and Cortez Masto (D-NV), citing federal data.
