It’s very risky for drivers to be on the roadside wait for tow-truck assistance. In this blog post; Coburg Towing will detail some great tips to help keep you secure while you wait for tow truck services as well as roadside assistance.

Take your vehicle to a safe Place

The first step when you can is to move your vehicle towards the side of the highway so that it does not block the roadway. If your vehicle is situated in right in the middle, this will increase the chance of being injured. If you are unable to move it then you must leave the vehicle and stay at least 4 feet away from the road.

Make Yourself Very Visible

Whatever the situation, whether your car is on the road or along the side of the road and you are driving, turn on your car’s warning lights. When you’ve got one put an unlit traffic cone or flare just a couple of feet from the vehicle. The more noticeable you and your vehicle are and the more noticeable you are, the more noticeable.

Make sure you save your phone’s battery

As you await your professional towing company make sure you save your phone’s battery. Do not waste your battery and wasting time on your mobile. Simply use your phone to call Coburg Towing, and sit in a secluded area, with care in the meantime, waiting for our skilled towing experts to arrive.

Protect Valuables

Don’t put your valuables in the car if you must take your car off. Get any valuables you have out of your car and put them on your person while you wait for towing services in particular if you need to walk for an emergency call or seek assistance.

Water, Food, Preparedness

It’s recommended to store extra water, food as well as warm clothing (jackets or gloves, blankets,) in your vehicle trunk so that you are ready for a breakdown on the road. It is crucial to stay safe from freezing temperatures or dehydration during the scorching summer. It is safe to rest knowing that the experts here in Coburg Towing will arrive in only a matter of minutes to efficiently and safely tow your car regardless of the reason of the breakdown.
