Incident Management?

[joen7xxx]

The past few times I've driven over to SLC from Elko, I have seen a large 1-11/2 ton truck with a utility body a d LOTS of red and amber lights on it. It says "Incident Management on it and a door seal I didn't rrecognize. One time it looked like he had someone pulled over. Is this a UHP or UDOT vehicle? Traffic control for accidents?

IMT are UDOT. They work in conjunction with UHP for accidents, breakdowns, etc. Here is a clip from KSL TV: Incident Management Team works to keep Utah freeways safe | ksl.com

California and some other states have something similar, though they don't quite have the 'Christmas Tree' lights like they do in Utah. FSP in California, Freeway Service Patrol.

CHP-Freeway Service Patrol

Thats actually a really good idea. Ive never seen anything like that before.

Just watched that video. I hear that same guy "very southern-Texas accent" on my scanner almost every day. You can tell he's not originally from Utah....
