AAA activating Tow to Go program for Memorial Day weekend | State

MID-MICHIGAN (WJRT) - AAA will be implementing its Tow to Go program for the holiday weekend.

The auto club will be activated beginning at 6 p.m. on May 24 until 6 a.m. on May 28.

The service is available to anyone, regardless of whether they are AAA members.

The free service is designed as a last resort for impaired or intoxicated drivers to get home with their vehicles without causing a crash. The program has completed 25,000 free tows with the program over the past 25 years.

Anyone who believes they consumed too much alcohol or drugs to drive home safely can call 1-855-286-9246 to request a tow truck, which will transport the driver and their vehicle home at no charge within a 10-mile radius.

AAA says the service should be treated as a backup plan. No advance appointments will be scheduled.
