Local Auto Body Collision Center helps train 911 First Responders!

The National Auto  Body Council (NABC) and a  local auto body shop (Precision Collision Auto Body) recently worked together with many other companies in the collision repair industry to bring a much  needed training program to local firefighter and EMT’s. On August 30th, 31st and September 1st, Precision  Collision worked together  with local insurance companies and other vendors to bring the First Responders  Emergency Extrication program (F.R.E.E.) to our fire departments at no cost to  them!

Saving lives at  the scene of an accident can sometimes depend mostly on response time referred  to as the “golden hour.” This class helps address new vehicle technologies  including high strength steels (HSS), airbag and restraint systems and  techniques to help remove injured passengers and potentially prevent loss of  life! Collision repair facilities around the country like Precision Collision  Auto Body open their businesses along with Halmatro USA who provides instruction  and are giving back to our communities helping to educate and share vital data  and knowledge with our first responders.

Partnerships  that made these events a huge success included local Insurance companies, LKQ Keystone aftermarket parts, Enterprise  Rent-A-Car, AllStar Auto  Glass and Foss Towing. The insurance partners who provided late model vehicles  for these classes included Progressive Insurance (3), State Farm Insurance (2),  American Family Insurance (2), Allstate Insurance (1) and Nationwide Insurance  (1). Two other vehicles were generously donated by Insurance Auto Auction in Seattle.
