The annual U.S. Marine Corps Reserve Toys for Tots program continues to collect toys at the fire station located at 1149 Route 130. All toys must be new, unwrapped, and in original packaging.
Collection will continue until the week of December 5th for children/families in need during the holiday season. For those dropping off at the fire station the collection boxes are located in the foyer which is accessible via the main entrance. Donations may be made at any time.
November 14-18 is Crash Responder Safety Week.
Nearly once every week, a first responder is killed while attempting to clear a roadway accident.
Under New Jersey's "Move Over" law, drivers are required to reduce their speed and change lanes when approaching an authorized emergency vehicle. These vehicles include tow trucks, highway maintenance vehicles, sanitation vehicles, and emergency (fire/police/EMS) vehicles displaying flashing, blinking or alternating emergency lights.
Unfortunately, law enforcement, emergency response personnel, tow truck operators, and highway maintenance workers continue to be struck and injured or killed while aiding others on the side of the road because a passing vehicle did not sufficiently slow down and move over.
When you see flashing lights on the side of the road, slow down, and if it’s safe, MOVE OVER.
If you make the move, others will follow.
