Service may be considered only when the disabled vehicle is positioned safely outside the active travel lane and the tow truck has enough room to approach, load and leave.
Do not attempt a jump start, tire change or other roadside repair while exposed to moving traffic.
Call 911 when a vehicle is blocking traffic, stopped near a blind hill or curve, or located where remaining nearby is unsafe.

The South Dayton area includes farmland, wooded properties, gravel driveways, culverts, drainage areas and locations with limited turnaround space.
Report mud, snow, soft ground, loose gravel, narrow culverts, gates, low branches, steep grades and limited turning room before service is accepted.
The tow truck must be able to enter, position, load and leave without damaging the property or becoming stuck.
The truck cannot cross crop fields, lawns, unstable shoulders or private property without appropriate authorization and safe access.
Hills, Curves and Limited-Shoulder Locations
Some South Dayton-area roads have hills, curves, wooded edges, drainage ditches and limited shoulders.
Provide the road name, nearest numbered address, nearest intersection and travel direction. Explain whether the vehicle is fully outside the traffic lane and whether hazard lights are operating.
Service may not be possible until police or another roadway authority controls traffic or moves the vehicle to a safer location.
Winter Towing and Snow Winch-Out Assistance
South Dayton and surrounding rural roads can experience lake-effect snow, ice, drifting, reduced visibility and rapidly changing conditions.
Winch-out service may be available for an eligible vehicle stuck in shallow snow, mud, grass or an accessible driveway when the tow truck can remain on firm and stable ground.
