November 14 – 18 , 2022 is Crash Responder Safety Week (CRSW). A Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) sponsored initiative, CRSW communicates the simple steps everyone can take in keeping our roadway responders and the public safe around traffic incidents.
SPC has developed a series of animated PSAs to raise awareness and keep our emergency responders safe on the job.
A new PSA will be released every day of Crash Responder Safety Week. Be “In the know, on the go” by clicking below:

Every minute of every day, law enforcement, fire and rescue, emergency medical services, public works, transportation, towing, and other responders work roadside to make roadways safe for all road users. Unfortunately, these traffic incident responders put their lives at risk when clearing each of the nearly 7-million annual motor vehicle crashes or the broader range of incidents such as stalled vehicles or roadway debris. CRSW is an opportunity to promote road user awareness and adherence to Move Over laws and Traffic Incident Management (TIM) training for all traffic incident responders.
