Towing takes a toll on you.
This very well sums it up an article pulled from a national roadservice provider…..
THE DEGRADATION OF A TOW OPERATOR
The degradation of a tow operator refers to the physical, emotional, and societal toll of the profession. Despite being essential first responders who face extreme hazards, including a national fatality rate on the side of the road averaging once every six days, operators often endure public hostility, stressful conditions, and lack of systemic support.The degradation of the role manifests in several critical ways:1. Physical Hazard and Road DangerHigh Fatality Rates: Tow operators work inches away from high-speed traffic. Motorist negligence and failure to adhere to Move Over laws make the job one of the most dangerous.Extreme Conditions: They work continuously in sweltering heat, freezing cold, sleet, and pouring rain, putting immense physical strain on their bodies.2. Emotional and Mental TollHostile Interactions: Operators are often the target of verbal abuse, threats, and even physical violence from disgruntled vehicle owners during impounds and repossessions.Burnout and PTSD: The combination of erratic 24/7 schedules, fatigue, and witnessing traumatic accident scenes leads to high rates of sleep deprivation, burnout, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).3. Societal and Stigma Challenges"Forgotten" Responder: Despite working side-by-side with police and EMTs, the public frequently misunderstands the tow operator's role, viewing them as a nuisance rather than a vital emergency service.Industry Devaluation: In some regions, a lack of strict regulation for entering the industry leads to cutthroat competition, which degrades overall profit margins, truck maintenance standards, and public image.
