There are a few situations that always require towing services. If you’ve been in a car accident, for example, your car will need to be towed away from the scene. Similarly, if your car has broken down and is unable to move, you’ll need to call a tow truck. Towing services are also necessary if you’re illegally parked and are about to be towed away by the police. Of course, there are other situations where towing services may be helpful, even if they’re not strictly necessary. If your car is having difficulty starting, for example, a tow truck can give you a jump start. If you’ve run out of gas, a tow truck can bring you a can of gas. If you have a flat tire, a tow truck can bring you a spare. In general, if you’re stranded on the side of the road, a tow truck can help you get back on your way.
