DUI AWARENESS TRAILER

The D.U.I. Awareness Trailer or “Crash Trailer” is used to make the public aware of the danger of drinking and driving. The vehicle on the trailer is normally a vehicle that has been involved in a collision as a result of someone driving the vehicle that was under the influence of drugs or alcohol or involved with another vehicle that the driver was under the influence of drugs or alcohol. The results are normally major due to the fact that your judgment is impaired due to alcohol or drugs, legal or illegal. The vehicles are changed out periodically by one of our sponsors at Affordable Towing.

The current vehicle on the D.U.I. Awareness Trailer is a Chevy S-10 pick-up truck. This truck was involved in a near head on collision on I-26 near the Cosgrove Exit. The truck entered onto I-26 going the wrong way. The vehicle was struck by large truck, possibly a tractor- trailer. The driver of the Chevy S-10 had to be cut out of the truck by Charleston County Rescue and immediately taken to M.U.S.C. for emergency treatment. Upon S.C. Highway Patrol investigation, the driver of the truck was intoxicated which caused the driver to go the wrong way on I-26. The driver did survive the collision but will have permanent head trauma.
