Your vehicle may also be stuck or disabled on the side road. In these instances, regardless of what brought you to this point, it may be time to call a tow truck company.



Tow trucks almost always have the authorization to tow illegally parked vehicles from streets and parking lots. Tow trucks must be authorized by the tenant or owner of the property to tow illegally parked vehicles from private property. To make it easier for drivers to see while they work at night, tow truck drivers will often have an illuminated red light on their vehicle.
