Kot prostovoljni gasilec, po poklicu pa zdravstveni reševalec sem se na avtocestah in hitrih cesta vse prepogosto srečal s težavnim pristopom preko zastojev. Leta 2013 sem bil v enoti gasilcev, ki se je prebijala na mesto dogodka, a zaradi nepravilno razvrščenih vozil nismo mogli napredovati preko zastoja, izstopil sem iz vozila in peš utiral pot gasilskemu tovornemu vozilu. Ker me je zanimalo, zakaj ljudje ne vedo, da se je v primeru zastojev potrebno pravilno razvrstiti, sem raziskal področje. Ugotovil sem, da državne in pristojne institucije niso veliko ozaveščale, zato sem se odločil za začetek akcije Ustvarimo Reševalni pas na avtocestah. Z objavo posnetkov težav, ki jih imamo, želimo pri populaciji vzbuditi zavedanje, da je pravilno razvrščanje izjemnega pomena za reševanje življenj. Slovenija je izrazito tranzitna država, zato se z zastoji na avtocestah srečujemo vsakodnevno, reševalni pas pa je potrebno ustvarjati v vsakem zastoju in ne le v zastojih ob izrednih dogodkih.
