AAA Tipsy Tow drivers are ready and waiting to assist drivers who are the worse for wear between 6pm New Year's Eve 2011 and 6am New Year's Day 2012. If you or someone you know over-indulges this New Year's Eve, don't try to navigate the roads on your own -- here's the info on your free ride home this holiday season.
The AAA Tipsy Tow program is running throughout a good chunk of the United States, in an effort to keep drunk drivers off the road and accidents down on New Year's Eve.
The AAA Tipsy Tow number is 1-800-AAA-HELP, or 1-800-222-4357.
Just call in and tell the operators you need a Tipsy Tow. AAA will drive you and tow your vehicle up to ten miles for free. For tows that exceed 10 miles. Motorists will be charged the towing company's standard rate if the milage exceeds 10 miles, which is about $3 per mile. You don't have to be an AA member, and you won't have to show any identification. Tipsy Tow's service will not take the driver to another drinking establishment, a repair facility, or any other location besides their home. The only exception is a hotel — as long as the driver is or plans to become a guest there.
In 2010, AAA received 2,400 calls; nearly 14,000 intoxicated drivers have used Tow to Go since the program began in 1998, according to a press release.
