SDTGA is a national safety campaign that reminds motorists to drive more carefully near solid waste collection vehicles. Motorists often are distracted while driving and frequently crash into collection employees or vehicles—sometimes with fatal consequences. In fact, dozens of solid waste employees were injured by careless drivers during the last year, and six of these workers were killed in such incidents. See a copy of the new SDTGA flyer here.  For more information about SDTGA, to request copies of SDTGA materials and to learn how all drivers can help keep garbage collectors safe on their routes, visit environmentalistseveryday.org/safety.
