Why Tonawanda Drivers Choose Buffalo Towing Services
Safety While Waiting for a Tow Truck
Move the vehicle to a safe, legal and accessible location when it can be done without creating additional risk. Turn on the hazard lights and remain aware of traffic, weather, pedestrians and surrounding conditions.
Do not stand between vehicles or beside an active traffic lane. If the vehicle is in a live lane, dangerous intersection, restricted highway location or another unsafe position, call 911 or the appropriate roadway authority before requesting ordinary towing service.
At a shopping center, park, industrial property or large parking area, provide the exact entrance, building, business name or parking row so the tow truck can locate the vehicle.
