Road side assistance is not necessary to purchase in addition to vehicle auto warranty, however some vehicle auto warranties do not cover road side assistance. This means if your vehicle breaks down in the middle of no where and you don’t have road side assistance, you will be in the situation of having to look for a local mechanic which can become quite costly. For instance your vehicle has a flat  not only would a local mechanic charge for the cost of the tire, but also charge for labor costs in addition.
Road side assistance can provide emergency and no emergency assistance 24 hours a day 7 days a week, 365 days a year for your vehicle. Road side assistance can cover anything from changing a flat battery to assisting in replacing a flat tire. Road side assistance is often the first choice for young drivers and women.

Often drivers get into trouble on the road as they don’t do basic checks prior to traveling. Any driver on the road should be responsible in checking oil, water, wipers and tires inclusive of spare. Road side assistance should be a driver’s last resort not the first.
