AAA's Tipsy Tow returns for Christmas Eve, New Year's Eve

AAA wants drivers to be safe this holiday season. The safety advocate is urging motorists to plan for a safe ride home before heading out to celebrate.

“Be sure you have a plan to get home safely if you're out celebrating this year,” said Michael Blasky, spokesman for AAA. “If that plan falls through, give AAA a call and we'll get you home."

AAA’s Tipsy Tow service will be offered on both Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve. Drivers, passengers, party hosts, bartenders and/or restaurant managers should:

– Call 1-800-AAA-HELP (1-800-222-4357) between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m. on Dec. 24 and Dec. 31 State that they need a “Tipsy Tow.”
– Provide the driver’s name, home address, phone number and vehicle/driver location.

Tipsy Tow provides a free 10-mile tow and ride home, even if you're not a AAA member. For mileage beyond this, motorists are charged a standard towing rate.

The service does not include roadside assistance.
