DEARBORN, Mich., (May 20, 2026) — As AAA prepares to assist more than 350,000 drivers nationwide with car trouble during Memorial Day weekend, The Auto Club Group will also offer its Tow to Go program to keep impaired drivers off the road.
“We don’t want impaired people getting behind the wheel and risking the lives of everyone on the road,” said Adrienne Woodland, spokesperson for AAA – The Auto Club Group. “AAA encourages anyone planning to drink or take impairing substances to also plan for a safe ride. Tow to Go can be your backup plan.”
Tow to Go is available in select states and metropolitan areas. It provides a confidential ride for one person and their vehicle to a safe location within 10 miles. Although the service is complimentary, it should be used as a last resort.
