Safety Director, All Hours Roadside
David Salazar is the Safety Director at All Hours Roadside. He oversees technician onboarding, on-scene safety protocols, and incident review across our Dallas–Fort Worth, Austin, Houston, San Antonio, Chicago, and Denver service areas. His work focuses on the three calls that make up the bulk of after-hours roadside work — dead batteries, flat tires, and lockouts — and on making sure every dispatched tech follows the same documented procedure for jump-starting modern vehicles (including start-stop and hybrid systems), changing tires on busy shoulders, and resolving lockouts on push-button and luxury vehicles without damage. David writes the company's field guides and customer-facing how-to articles so drivers stranded at 2 a.m. get the same accurate, step-by-step answer a trained technician would give them in person.
