Local Company Expands Nationwide

Carl Cannova, president of Stop Rubbernecking CC, LLC and creator of the SRN1000, has added some notable new customers to the company’s roster. Stop Rubbernecking is a company that began locally in Manatee County and is now expanding in a big way across the nation.

The SRN1000, a privacy screen and barrier used mostly for law enforcement, has been purchased by eleven Florida law enforcement agencies, including the Manatee County Sheriff’s Office. 

New customers now include the Dupont City Police Department in Dupont, Washington; Apache Junction, Prescott and Tolleson Police Departments in Arizona; the Dallas Police Department, the Las Vegas Coroner’s Office, the West Palm Beach Police Department and the Pratt County Sheriff’s Office in Kansas.

The SRN1000 is a portable barrier system that protects victims of accidents and their families from prying eyes, keeps officers safe while working accidents, and hides traumatic scenes from onlookers and helps prevent “rubbernecking”.  The screen is meant for use of law enforcement officers and has even been used by coroners and investigators who rely on the safety of the screen as well as the ability to protect from possible contamination and interruption to investigations.

Cannova designed the SRN1000 with help from RoBrady, a local design company in Sarasota.

Carl Cannova and his wife, Stop Rubbernecking CC CEO Tommie Cannova, have worked along with their son Phillip, vice president of sales, to reach new customers and find other departments that can benefit from the use of the portable barrier systems.

“We are thrilled to have the support of not only law enforcement agencies locally, but now also across the country,” stated Cannova, president of Stop Rubbernecking CC, LLC. “We are so proud of the design of our product, the quality of production, as well as the privacy and safety that we are able to offer through the SRN1000. We believe that every law enforcement agency should have our product, and if they don’t know about it yet, they will soon!”
