I was not aware that this existed. I just had everyone in my family put the number in their phone. We have Good Sam roadside assistance, but this is still a good to know kind of thing.

Thank you for the post. I added number to my phone. I knew WV had one as I blew a tire on a rental car about a mile in front of the help truck. He stopped and helped change tire and gave me directions to nearest station. Very helpful.
