Secondary collisions are one of the most dangerous things that can happen when a car breaks down on the highway. Research on traffic safety shows that disabled cars on the shoulders of highways make accidents much more likely, especially when there is a lot of traffic or visibility is poor. The longer a car is left on the side of the road, the more likely it is to cause serious damage to other cars.
Professional roadside assistance deals with this danger by sending help right away and putting it in the right place. When you call Prolocal Towing Services, our fleet of GPS-enabled vehicles finds the one closest to you that is available. This technology-based method cuts down on response times, and help can often reach you in 30 minutes or less in the Atlanta metropolitan area.
Our operators come with high-visibility safety gear, reflective warning triangles, and strong LED lighting systems that warn drivers who are coming up on the roadside. These safety measures make sure that work areas around broken-down cars are safe, which lowers the risk of accidents while technicians figure out what’s wrong or get cars ready for transport.
Expert Help Lowers the Risk of Traffic Accidents
Trying to fix things on Atlanta’s highways puts drivers in very dangerous situations. Getting out of your car on a narrow shoulder while cars go by at 70 miles per hour is asking for trouble. When you change a tire on the side of the road, it can be deadly.
Professional roadside technicians have the training and tools they need to do their jobs safely in these dangerous places. They know how to position things correctly, use the right safety barriers, and finish repairs quickly to cut down on exposure time. Because they are experts, they can do things right the first time, which means there is no need to try again, which makes the danger last longer.
Also, some repairs should never be done on the side of the road because they are too dangerous. Jump-starting batteries near fast-moving traffic, delivering fuel in windy weather, or checking for mechanical damage without the right tools can all make things more dangerous. Professional help gets rid of these risks completely by sending qualified technicians and specialized tools right to your door.
Safety in Bad Weather
The weather in Georgia makes highways even more dangerous. Thunderstorms in the summer come out of nowhere, making the roads slick and hard to see. Winter ice storms can make highways dangerous, even when cars are only having minor problems.
While they wait for help, stranded drivers are directly exposed to these things. Atlanta’s hot summers can be very bad for your health, especially for older people or young children. On the other hand, travelers who aren’t ready for sudden drops in temperature during the winter months can get hypothermia.
Roadside assistance protects you from the weather by getting to you quickly and using climate-controlled service vehicles. Our technicians come ready for Georgia’s changing weather, with everything they need to fix cars and keep customers comfortable at the same time. When repairs can’t be done on-site because of the weather, we quickly move cars and people to safe places.
Specialized Tools Make Things Safer and More Efficient
Modern cars have advanced technology that needs special tools and knowledge to be handled safely. When towing or fixing something on the side of the road, all-wheel drive systems, advanced electronics, low-clearance designs, and alternative fuel powertrains all need to follow certain rules.
With professional help, this knowledge is available right on the highway. Prolocal Towing Services has a wide range of vehicles, such as flatbed carriers, wheel-lift trucks, and fully equipped service vehicles. This variety makes sure that the right equipment is used for each job, which stops damage from bad handling.
Our technicians get regular training on how car technology is changing. They know the manufacturer’s specifications for different makes and models, know how to work on hybrid and electric vehicles the right way, and use diagnostic tools that find problems accurately. This knowledge base is better than what most drivers have, which makes sure that interventions are safe and effective.
