What is a ‘Road Ranger”?..................
The Road Ranger Service Patrol provides traffic incident management response services and limited no-cost highway assistance to motorists to improve highway safety for emergency responders and the motoring public.
If you're on the roadway and need assistance, call *347 on your mobile phone.
If you've just been hit by a Road Ranger and pushed into the river, try to hold your breath as long as possible.
It’s a guy in a pickup truck that goes back and forth over the bridge to help any stalled vehicle and try to get them off the road as quickly as possible.
I live minutes from this bridge and cross it quite often, the Road Rangers are in well marked vehicles.
at 3:30am I wonder how the accident happened, the traffic at that time of night should have been minimal, I wonder how the accident happened.
Roadrangers are service vehicles deployed around the I-295 loop to assist stranded drivers with flat tires and such...ironically enough.
Not sure if this service is provided by city, county or state but I suspect somebody’s gettin’ sued.
I’ve had encounters with these vehicles on the beltway myself....some of ‘em seem to think they own the road and will cut you off and pull out in front of you from the emergency lane.......not smart when the speed limit is 65-70.

Minnesota we call them Highway Helper.
