The car is broken on the highway, should you ask the 4s shop to tow the car, or ask the insurance company or the traffic police tow the car?
A recent incident of sky-high towing fees blew up the Internet, Master Liu's truck broke down on the highway, and He's Hoisting Company charged 200,000 yuan for Master Liu's obstruction of traffic to enforce. If Master Liu agrees to sign, it can be reduced to 80,000 yuan, and if he does not agree, he will be enforced, charging a "sky-high rescue fee" of 200,000 yuan, but because Master Liu is a large transport vehicle with a value of 6 million yuan, he believes that the crane company does not have the ability to lift and rejects this unreasonable request. However, he's crane company not only did not leave but asked Master Liu for 59,000 yuan of lost time, and after Master Liu refused, they "dispatched" multiple cars to block Master Liu's truck on the highway for 10 days.
This incident actually exposed a problem, the high-speed trailer business is currently an exclusive business that is almost monopolized by the traffic management department, how to avoid similar incidents?
In fact, although on ordinary provincial highways and national highways, if our cars break down, we can choose 4S shop trailers, or call the insurance company's phone, and many insurance companies have policies that give away towing services. However, this does not apply on highways, which are strictly controlled by the traffic control department due to their fast speed. Only the rescue company designated by the traffic management can rescue, and neither the 4S shop nor the insurance company has the right to tow the car on the highway.
Therefore, in the case of anchorage on the highway, first of all, put a safety warning sign at 150 meters behind the car, and quickly evacuate the occupants of the car to a safe area outside the highway, must not stay in the car, and dial the high-speed rescue telephone of 12122, quickly report their location information through the kilometer plate on the side of the road, and the rescue unit will arrive and drag your car at the nearest high-speed exit.
In terms of costs, the cost of each province is different, taking Guangdong Province as an example, the cost per time for customers below the left of 7 is 420 yuan, 10 yuan per kilometer, and the upper limit of trailer is 670 yuan. At first glance, the cost is not too outrageous, but for freight vehicles, the cost elasticity of the trailer is very large, coupled with the trailer company trailer that can only be designated by the traffic management department, which is basically in a monopoly, so the trailer company is even more arrogant in pricing, which is also the reason for the sky-high trailer fee.
If we encounter an unreasonable toll on the trailer, the owner can call the price complaint number 12358 or report it directly to the traffic management department. For our car owners, it is wise to check the condition of the vehicle in time, eliminate the vehicle fault, and avoid breaking down at high speed.
