[Steve Calitri]

Veteran tow-business owner, Ron Meyer, and industry legend, Mike Corbin, have signed on to the American Towman Roadside Safety Commission. “We are excited that Ron and Mike will be serving on the Commission,” said AT Publisher Dennie Ortiz, who is chairing the Commission. “They both bring bonafide roadside-safety credentials to the project.”

Meyer is president of Pine Tree Towing, running out of three Ohio cities: Cambridge, Caldwell, and Marietta. Meyer is a member of the Governor’s Ohio Traffic Safety Council and sits on the executive board of the Association of Professional Towers of Ohio. Meyer is also the lead-author of the industry’s first Quick-Clearance Certification program. Mike Corbin led the Spirit Ride through 310 cities across America, where he met with first responders and conducted ceremonies honoring their fallen. Corbin is also known for recording the songs, The Road Calls and Booms in the Sky, which pay tribute to the tower’s heroism, dedication, and sacrifice. Corbin suffered serious injuries as teenager when he was struck by a passing vehicle on the roadside, having stopped to help a motorist who was broken down.
