SURVEY
When arriving on the scene, park out of the way, identify yourself to the customer or the other officials and inform them that you’re going to survey the casualty and report back to them.
C
CALCULATE
To gather any information, you need to calculate the resistance to be overcome and the effort you will need to employ for success.
E
EXPLAIN
It’s probably the most important step in the acronym. This is what you are going to explain to the customer or the officials on scene, what your plan is and anything you may need from them to safely complete your task.
N
NO’s
Ready your tow trucks for positioning, block traffic with permission, if necessary, move into position, do one final walk around and validate all your rigging to ensure nothing jumps out at your as a potential problem. Correct any errors you may find that could lead to an unsuccessful attempt.
E
EXECUTE
Finalize and engage your plan for success. Do it once and do it right.
