Section 1: The WreckMaster Discipline

THE DISCIPLINE

While tow truck operators do have some control over their level of risk, there are situations that arise that can’t be anticipated. Circumstances and conditions affect the type and level of risk at any given time, especially participating in recovery which can change moment-by-moment. Tow truck operators are dealing with the victims, the casualties, the loads, the environments, the trucks, the rigging, the other responders sharing the scene, and—of course—the traffic whizzing by on the other side of that thin white line.

These are all factors that must be managed to minimize the risk associated with the activity.

WreckMaster trains towing and recovery operators and roadway vehicle incident responders to employ a routine that gets the greatest result from the least amount of effort while minimizing the chance of injury, damage and loss.

We refer to this routine as “The Discipline.”

Simply put, The Discipline is the word “SCENE.” Each letter stands for another step in the process.
