Red Raider wrecker keeps 17 tow trucks on hand.

Lately owner Scott Bickel said 90%of those trucks have been out daily working to pick up the increased amount of wrecked cars.

He said most of these wrecks are because drivers aren't used to the hazardous conditions.

"People just aren't used to it," Bickel said. "It doesn't happen all the time, it is kind of a surprise when it does. I just don't think they respect the conditions and what they can do."

If you find yourself in trouble you can call Red Raider Wrecker at (806) 687- 5076.
