AAA ‘Tow To Go’ Getting Impaired Drivers Home Safely This July 4th

Phone Number: (855) 2-TOW-2-GO or (855) 286-9246

As Americans are celebrating Independence Day, AAA strongly encourages all motorists to arrange a safe ride home before they partake in any festivities. This FREE towing service will run from July 3, 2018 through 6 a.m. on July 5, 2018.

  • Confidential local ride within a 10-mile radius to a safe location
  • Service is provided in all parts of Florida
  • Free and available to both AAA members and non-members
  • The AAA tow truck takes the vehicle and the driver home

AAA works year round to educate motorists about driving practices that will help keep them safe and reduce traffic-related crashes and the injuries that can result. PreventDUI.AAA.com is an online resource offering impaired driving facts, transportation alternatives and expert advice. Once there, AAA encourages visitors to Take the Pledge to drive drug and alcohol-free.

Since its inception in 1998, Tow to Go has safely removed more than 25,000 intoxicated drivers from the roads. The service is designed to be used as a last resort. It is offered based on availability of AAA Service Technicians and tow trucks during times of high call volume.

Important Tow To Go Guidelines:
  • Tow trucks can take up to two people home; if there are more people in your party—you will need to make other arrangements to get home safely.
  • You can’t make an appointment to use the Tow to Go service, it is designed to be used as a last resort so have a designated driver before you have your first drink.
  • It may be necessary, in certain situations, for AAA to contact a cab company or local law enforcement to assist with getting the intoxicated individual a safe ride.
  • Tow to Go may not be available in rural areas or during severe weather conditions
