Roadside assistance programs are special features that every vehicle owner should have for his vehicle. They are programs that provide a person with help if anything happens that prevents him from either getting into the vehicle when he needs to or operating the vehicle properly once he gets in it. There are generally two types of roadside assistance plans a person can get. One type comes from the person's insurance company. Roadside insurance services are separate from regular insurance policies, but their monthly fee usually goes on the person's auto insurance bill. The other type of roadside assistance comes from separate companies. These roadside insurance companies often just offer roadside assistance services and nothing else. Members can sign up for a yearly plan or a monthly plan depending on the provider's setup. The roadside insurance services cover situations such as:
Tire Blowouts and Flats
Flat tires and blowouts are common occurrences that roadside assistance addresses. A driver will come out for a person who has a roadside assistance plan and replace the tire with a spare so that the driver can get to his destination.
