Tipsy Tow Resumes for Thanksgiving

Triple A did it for every holiday this summer, and now they're offering it again. If you've had too much to drink this Thanksgiving, call a tow truck.

The service will start at 6 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 26, and run through 11:59 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 27.

During this period, drivers, potential passengers, party hosts, bartenders and restaurant managers can call 1-800-AAA-HELP (1-800-222-4357) to request a free tow home of up to 10 miles.

Just tell the operator you need a Tipsy Tow. You don't even need to be a AAA member.

Tipsy Tow will provide a one-way ride for the driver, one passenger and their vehicle. Services will not be provided to motorists requesting a tow to another drinking establishment, repair facility or any location other than their home.

Tipsy Tow is not applicable for requests for a vehicle start, flat tire change, gas delivery, taxi service or requests to transport more than two people with the vehicle.

If you need to go farther than 10 miles, you'll be charged the standard rate.

The program was offered Memorial Day, Independence Day, and Labor Day holidays this year.
