AAA Reactivates Tow to Go Program Nationwide for Labor Day Safety

AAA is reactivating its 'Tow to Go' program over the Labor Day weekend from August 29 to September 2, offering free, confidential rides and towing for impaired drivers and their vehicles within a 10-mile radius. The service is available to both AAA members and non-members but cannot be scheduled in advance and is intended as a last resort for individuals who find themselves unfit to drive. Since its inception over 25 years ago, the program has safely removed nearly 30,000 impaired drivers from the road. AAA emphasizes that impaired driving accounts for roughly one-third of all traffic fatalities year-round, with over 12,000 deaths in alcohol-related crashes occurring in 2023 alone. The auto club encourages drivers to plan ahead with designated drivers or alternative transportation to avoid driving impaired. With Labor Day being a peak travel period, AAA is committed to providing this vital safety resource to prevent accidents and save lives during the holiday celebration.
