We have had many unpleasant experiences dealing with drivers who either don’t know there is such a law or could care less about the safety of those people working on the side of the road. We have made every attempt to ensure that our drivers and vehicles are visible in any kind of weather.

Totman’s has been active in the local community since opening in 1994, primarily in the area of assisting area fire departments with donating vehicles for educating firefighters and emergency responders. Sometimes training sessions are held in different areas and often they are held at Totman’s yard.
