It's Only A White Line (30 Sec. English)

With more than five million registered vehicles in its service area, Houston TranStar is launching "It’s Only a White Line" to help prevent loss of life and injuries to stranded motorists and pedestrians on local freeways. With only a stripe of white paint separating people and fast-moving traffic, getting off the freeway is your safest bet following a breakdown.
The It’s Only a White Line campaign urges travelers to take these steps if car trouble occurs:
- The number one goal is to get out of danger. Take the nearest exit, even if it means ruining the tire rim or damaging the vehicle.
- If you can’t get to an exit, pull as far off the road as possible.
- If stranded, remain in the vehicle. Stay buckled, turn on hazard lights, call for help and move your seat back as far as possible.
- In the Tow and Go service area, use TranStar’s free mobile app to call for a no-cost tow.
