Emergencies requiring road service can strike drivers when they least expect them and often when they are least convenient. Whether driving to work or driving to a vacation destination, emergencies as small as flat tires and as major as engine breakdowns can be addressed with the assistance of an auto club. Most auto clubs offer at least basic towing and roadside assistance services, but some go the extra mile to give members even more aid in times of need.

Valuable Emergency Road Services to Consider

Any driver who has their car stolen can appreciate how incredibly difficult it can be to get information or leads. Some auto clubs help to increase the chances of recovering vehicles by offering reward money to those who help. Some auto clubs offer as much as $5,000 to see the safe return of a member's vehicle. Drivers should consider this protection if they live in a high risk area or are traveling through unknown areas and feel the safety of their car is in question.

Another road service drivers should consider is multi-vehicle protection. Most auto clubs offering road service extend their benefits only to a single car in the member's household, unless the member pays extra for each additional vehicle. However, for a single, nominal fee, some auto clubs will provide roadside assistance for each of a driver's vehicles, including RVs.

Good Sam RV Emergency Road Service provides road service to all members and has a list of services available that includes multi-vehicle protection as well as theft-reward incentives.
