On Friday February 22nd, 2008 Hughsonville Fire Department was dispatched for
a two car head on MV A on Route 9D in front of the Getty Gas Station (2087 Route 9D).
At 12:10pm I arrived on the scene to find Old State Auto with their tow truck
hooked up to Vehicle 1 a 2005 Nissan NY Reg. DL V7809. This vehicle was head on into
vehicle 2 a 2003 Honda NY Reg. PZP9412. Vehicle 2 had two patients sitting in the
vehicle requiring Advanced Life Support.
I advised the owner of Old State Auto that he must unhook Vehicle 1 and remove
his tow truck from the scene until all patients have been removed from the accident
scene. This request was eventually done after some resistance from the tow truck owner.
I'm writing to you to inform you of a direct violation of the "Tow Law" the Town
Board adopted just last year.
If you have any question please contact me at 845-590-0920.
Glenn M Kramer Chief of Department
