VALDOSTA, Ga. (WALB) - WALB News 10 has learned new details about a wild crash on Highway 84 in Lowndes County that many have seen all over social media.


The video has been shared on just about every social media platform in the last week. It’s body cam footage from a Lowndes County Sheriff’s Office deputy who was on the opposite side of the highway investigating another crash.


While on the scene, the video shows a car driving up the back of a tow truck full speed, and then flying over the truck and flipping in the air. The deputy then rushes to the aid of the driver, reportedly a woman who survived.


The incident is raising awareness of Georgia’s Move Over Law. Which requires drivers to slow down, and/or move over a lane when approaching emergency vehicles on the side of the road, which includes tow trucks.


“People not moving over actually has hit my family as well. In 1966 when my father was 12, he lost his father, my grandfather. He was hooking up to a vehicle and a drunk driver rear-ended the tow truck that he was right behind causing him to pass away at the scene,” Louis Kenda, part owner of Kenda Truck Center, said.


To protect roadside workers and drivers with disabled vehicles, AAA is offering some precautionary tips:



  • Remain alert and avoid distractions when driving

  • Keep an eye out for emergency vehicles, tow trucks, etc. that are stopped on the side of the road

  • Slow down and if possible, move one lane over


“I can control the load that I am towing, I can control where it’s at once I arrive on the scene, and I can control how it gets off my truck. The only thing I cannot control is the people driving by. That is the worst nightmare,” Kenda said.


It is the Law not only in Georgia but in Alabama and Florida too. To many Firefighter, Police Officers, Wrecker Drivers, Utility Drivers or construction workers get killed every year because people are in a hurry and do not slow down or move over. 


MOVE OVER AND SLOW DOWN!!! You wouldn't want your family member killed because someone was in a hurry
