AAA announced that its Tipsy Tow service is available to the public beginning at 6:00 pm on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve and are extended until 6 a.m. the following morning.
Drivers, passengers, party hosts or even restaurant employees are encouraged to call (800) AAA-HELP during those hours and state that they need a “tipsy tow” to take home anyone who has been drinking.
That individual will then need to provide the driver’s name, home address, phone number and vehicle/driver location.
AAA officials emphasize that people do not have to be a member of AAA to use the service.
For mileage beyond the free service, motorists will be charged a standard towing rate, according to AAA. The Tipsy Tow service does not include roadside assistance.
