McFarland Photo of the Week |
In Case You Missed It (ICYMI) - Saturday, October 16th was National Move Over Day. First responders are often working just a few feet from traffic. Law enforcement, ambulances, tow truck operators, highway maintenance crews (to name a few) depend on you to move over or slow down to keep them safe. When you see flashing lights, do what’s right. Protect our first responders so they can protect you.
