Tow operators upset over wrecker service

Some towing companies are crying foul over the state's new program to fast remove wrecked vehicles from a critical stretch of Interstate 95.

In June, the Virginia Transportation Department of began using a state-owned rollback wrecker to remove disabled or wrecked vehicles off the thruway. Tow truck company operators say the program wrongly competes with their businesses.

The Free Lance-Star of Fredericksburg reports that VDOT officials told the tow truck company operators in a meeting Thursday they understood their concern, but that the state's work is to make sure the interstate is safe and that traffic can keep moving.

The operators want a system similar to one in other locality in which private tow truck operators are dispatched along with police and emergency responders.
