Bill targets garbage truck perils across states
Kenny Lawson, a Germantown native and longtime garbage collector, survived a 1996 crash that crushed his spine and hampered his legs. The piece notes a push by the Solid Waste Association of North America and the National Waste & Recycling Association to pass laws in 16 states including Ohio to penalize motorists who fail to slow for flashing garbage-truck warning signals. The measures aim to reduce fatalities in a high risk job, with moving violations and fines cited as deterrents.
