Houston highways carry some of the highest traffic volumes in Texas. When your vehicle breaks down on a freeway, your safety is the top priority. Follow these guidelines while waiting for your Prime Towing truck to arrive.
- Move off the travel lanes: Pull as far onto the shoulder as possible. If you cannot move your vehicle, turn on hazard lights and call 911.
- Stay buckled in your car: The shoulder of a highway is not a safe place to stand. Remain in your vehicle with your seatbelt on unless there is an immediate danger like fire or smoke.
- Be visible: Keep hazard lights on. At night, turn on your dome light and use reflective triangles if available.
- Do not cross traffic: Never try to walk across highway lanes to reach an exit or gas station. Wait for professional help.
