The Touch-A-Tuck event went great! See photos of the event that occured this past weekend HERE.
Previous Report - Guys never grow too old to "touch a truck". On Saturday (9/21/2024) the Rutherford County Traffic Safety Task Force is making that dream come true from 9:00AM-noon at World Outreach Church, 1921 Old Salem Highway. Plus, it's free!
Murfreesboro Police Sgt. Robert Palmer, who is coordinating the event, said he worked on helicopters when he was in the military.
“With an aviation background and to have a helicopter out there, I think the kids will like it,” Palmer said.
People may also use the DUI goggles to simulate what it’s like to drive under the influence of alcohol.
“Just being able to interact with the goggles will be a plus,” Palmer said.
Other vehicles on display include police cars, an ambulance, fire engines, Tenny C. Bear, a school bus, a Tennessee Wildlife Resource Agency boat, drones, tractor trailer trucks and a Tennessee Highway Patrol distracted driving trailer when teens and adults can test their driving skills.
Again, that's this coming Saturday morning (9/21/2024) at World Outreach Church, and it's free!
