Some Serious Gas Increases

I'm sure you can't help but notice the price of gas increasing
every single day.  This impacts business and consumers as well.

It seemed like yesterday the price was $2.00 gallon.........and it was!
Now, here in Whiteford, MD  the rate is up to $2.48!  That's a heck of a jump.

So I went looking for info to find out why and found this great article
and explanation from the newsroom at AAA.


It's frustrating that's for sure, here we thought we
could catch a break for awhile.

Oh well, it's off to work we go!

Customer Speak


Last night my mother and myself got stuck in a snow drift (Heaps Rd).

One of your drivers, via AAA, came to our rescue (his name was something like, "T-rex").

Just wanted to tell you how thankful we both are (it was around midnight) and how helpful, professional, kind, and efficient your driver and your services are !

I HOPE I CAN HAVE A CHANCE TO REPAY YOUR KINDNESS ONE DAY!

My mother is 80 and I am 50+, so we really needed the help, and your driver was TOPS !

THANKS ! ! !

In Honor of Kevin St. Pierre

Kevin was all of 22, a tow truck driver who was killed in the line of duty.

You can read the full story here:

Senseless deaths like this are raising awareness all over
the country and bringing attention to the
MOVE OVER LAW that many States
are activating to save the lives of tow truck drivers.



 

At George's Custom Towing we are
hyper vigilant when it comes to safety training
for our team, the loss of one life on the job
is unacceptable.

Car 44 where are you?

What.........and why?  Who would take such a risk stealing
NASCAR No. 44?

Truly boggles the mind.

Car 44 has now been returned to it's North Carolina
NASCAR shop after being found along a remote road
in suburban Atlanta.

Unfortunately the car wasn't found soon
enough to compete in the Atlanta Motor
Speedway race this past weekend. Team XTREME
is still trying to hunt down the trailer that
goes with the car.

Move Over For Emergency Vehicles


A Message from AAA


Governor O'Malley has expanded the State of Maryland's
Move Over laws to now include Tow Truck Operators.

This law went into effect October 1, 2014 and
comes with a hefty fine of $500 if not adhered to.

The law states if you see a tow truck driver on the shoulder, 
you must move into an open lane away from the tow truck 
or slow down to a safe speed.

This is the same law protecting first responders; police, 
emergency vehicles and now tow trucks.

Let's keep it safe for 
Tow Truck Operators

Truth in Advertising

..........well I took a chance, that maybe just once there was some truth
in a commercial that I've been seeing lately from AARP Auto insurance program.

As in "we will lower your auto insurance payments by $400/month"..........

The real catch for me and what prompted me to go to their website and
spend 8 minutes completing the application was the renew- ability clause
they offered.  This is perhaps the only reason I've stayed with my current 
insurance company State Farm - they can never cancel my policy due to
an accident, not that I ever have accidents.

To make a long story short...... the AARP insurance would
cost me $720 more per year than what I currently pay State Farm and
for less coverage............
(well, I suppose if one person saves $400 then there is some truth in advertising)

So, now AARP has all my personal information and
I can already feel the onslaught of emails that will be
arriving in my in-box.  But hey, I truly believed that maybe
this one time there would be truth in advertising. NOT!

So while I was fiddling with my State Farm policy
I realized that I had towing coverage and I am
covered for a rental car too!  Well that takes the edge off!

I know that if I were stranded, my main priority would be
to get a tow truck to my location as soon as possible.  I
wouldn't necessarily be thinking about whether or not my insurance
covered this situation.  So maybe it's a good time to take
a look at your policy too!
