Roadside Rescues to Increase 6 Percent During Holidays

AAA Arizona says one in three people in our state will take to the roadways during the year-end holidays. AAA predicts that it will come to the aid of 12,800 motorists between December 23 and January 2. That’s an increase of 6% over the same period last year.

The auto club projects that it will tow nearly 5,000 vehicles, jump start more than 3,300 cars, retrieve more than 2,100 sets of keys locked inside vehicles, fix more than 1,800 tires and deliver fuel to more than 250 stranded motorists.

The club encourages motorists to make a check list before leaving on a holiday road trip. This includes checking tires, battery, belts and hoses.
