Meet the Road Rangers


Video: Road Rangers

The Road Rangers are a free service of the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT).  These commuter cowboys patrol I-275, I-75, I-4, the Crosstown and Veteran’s Expressway here in the Bay area.  There is also an outfit through Manatee County.

The Road Rangers provide free and reliable roadside assistance 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.  And these highway heroes stay busy helping as many as 9,000 Florida motorists a month statewide.  The Road Rangers clear disabled vehicles from the travel lanes, remove roadway debris and assist the Florida Highway Patrol (FHP) during traffic incidents. 

If you need assistance from the Road Rangers, dial *347 on your cell phone.  Make sure you are in a safe location and not driving while you make the call.
