VA Tower Wins Safety Award From Governor

Round of applause to Kevin Jones, owner of Bee Line Towing of Lynchburg, VA! He's been chosen as a recipient of the 2010 Governor's Transportation Safety Award!

Here's the story from www.wset.com:

Lynchburg, VA - A Lynchburg man is getting ready to visit the Governor's Mansion Wednesday.

Kevin Jones will be picking up the 2010 Governor's Transportation Safety Award.

He's the owner of Bee Line Towing, and for several years he's donated cars to local law enforcement agencies. They are used for crash reconstruction classes.

"We've got the cars and they've got very limited budgets right now so its a huge deal to be able to give them a car that runs and drives and let them crash into it,” Jones said.

Jones says he plans to attend with his wife and another Lynchburg area winner, Sergeant Kassi Allen with the Liberty University (web) Police Department.

She has helped educate students and the community about rail safety.
