Have you ever had to use a tow truck?

I have a few times but the finniest was when my husband, at the time, had a Mercedes which I did not want to buy for us, and for some reason I was down south in the Margaret River wine region with a girlfriend, in his car (I had my own also).

To my horror it broke down!
The people in the local garage were sniggering at us, and we ended up having to get a tow truck.

There is probably another time I have used one, however this one stands out.

Yes, when my car broke down. I was unable to start it and smoke was coming out of the bonnet. Unfortunately, calling a tow truck was the only way to get my car home.

I have over the 40 something years I have been driving used their services once or twice.
But, to be totally honest it's many many times..lol.
The circumstances were many, and the worst part! having to get into a filthy cabin,with the tow truck driver.
Put it this way, if you were wearing white.......forget it! the dirt and oil of their seats is appalling.

Oh! Jonaj, that's funny! Brings to mind 'beggars can't be choosers'! Lol!

But you see we as the public should not have to get into a filthy tow truck!

Never have and hopefully never will!
