Bob Annan

Co-founder

A retired, veteran Police Officer, Bob served thirty-eight years between the Toronto Police Service and the Durham Regional Police Service.

Bob was the lead officer in the Hit and Run Squad and the first Reconstructionist for the Durham Service where fatalities & serious collisions were part of his investigation responsibilities. In 1993 Bob and John decided that more needed to be done to educate the public to the horrors of fatalities. The officers constructed a model town utilizing 41,000 sq. feet of display space, complete with roads and working traffic lights to demonstrate what emergency services do upon arriving at collision sites. Over 35000 people came to the three day event, proving that the public was interested in how to prevent the deaths on our roads. Bob & John agreed that education was paramount in prevention of fatalities, and education in conjunction with law enforcement can reduce collisions.
