All but the very luckiest of souls has, at some point, had their car towed away from them in the wake of malfunction from an automotive towing company, or worse, come out to the place it had once been parked only to find some phantom tow truck had grabbed hold of their prized possession and quickly spirited it away. The latter case is always most infuriating, though having to call an towing company is never anyones idea of a ripping good time in itself. Either way, without traffic enforcement bylaws and tow trucks we probably wouldnt recognize the world we live in, so its time to accept their existence, and know a few things about them that can help you in case you have to cross their path.
The first thing to make sure of as a car owner is that you have a plan of action in mind in the event of a breakdown or, God forbid, a sudden realization that you havent the requisite amount of gasoline to continue running that combustion engine of yours. Its embarrassing, yes but hey, it happens to all of us, so the best thing to do is swallow pride and vanity and ring up a auto towing company ASAP to get that motionless heap of your off the road as quickly as humanly possible....
