Roadside Assistance vs Towing

Not sure whether you need roadside assistance or a tow? Here’s how to choose the right service and save time and money.

What is the Difference?

What Is Roadside Assistance?

Roadside assistance is designed to get your vehicle running again without towing it. Services typically include jump starts, lockouts, tire changes, fuel delivery, battery replacement, and light diagnostics. Roadside assistance is usually faster and more affordable than towing when the vehicle can be safely repaired on-site.

What Is Towing?

Towing is required when a vehicle cannot be driven due to mechanical failure, collision damage, or unsafe operating conditions. Towing transports your vehicle to a repair shop or secure location but does not include on-site repairs.

Roadside Assistance vs Towing

Roadside assistance is best for:


• Dead batteries


• Flat tires with a spare


• Locked keys in the vehicle


• Running out of fuel


• Minor mechanical issues


Towing is best for:


• Engine failure


• Transmission problems


• Severe brake issues


• Collision damage


• Vehicles that cannot be safely driven
