Our Story
As drivers, how many times have we seen a parked car on the roadside? How about a utility vehicle or two in a work zone on a road that may even close a driving lane? A semi-truck parked along the side of a highway that is even busy at night? Or a first responder attempting to clean up the road after a crash?
Chances are, we all have experienced every one of these instances. So, safety on the roads should always be on our minds when driving.
Globosocks LLC realizes that we must pay more attention to vehicles along the roadside and in work zones. There have been many measures put into place to keep people safe. Vehicle standards have improved through the years and visual disruptors have been developed, including cones, barriers, flares, and reflective triangles. Despite these efforts, this staggering statistic persisted: over two people a day die from crashes in work zones alone. More--not less--effort was needed.
This is why Globosocks LLC invented and patented an easy to use piece of safety equipment called the SafetySock®. The SafetySock® was designed to be used on your vehicle’s outside mirrors and to be easy to use by simply rolling your window and placing the SafetySock® over your vehicle’s outside mirror. With this additional visual disruptor, you and your vehicle become more visible to passing traffic.
The SafetySock® is an innovative piece of safety equipment for ordinary drivers, workers in work zones, semi-truck drivers when parking on the roadside for mandatory rest periods, and for first responders dealing with crashes and emergencies on our roads.
Because it is easy to use, easy to store inside your vehicle, and easy to be seen, quickly has it become a commonly used piece of safety equipment in the road safety industry.
