AAA是美國最知名的拖車協會，初級會員費$66/年，包括4次/年，5邁/次的免費服務。由於很少有人托5邁就可到達目的地，所以一般人都選高級會員，會員費$99，包括4次/年，100邁/次的免費服務。
隻要你每年用一次，就不虧。
可許多人每年一次都不用，有沒有別的選擇？
針對這累用戶，Allstate 最近推出了終身免會員費，10邁/$75統一標準收費的新型會員製度。
好處是，你要是不托車，就不用交費。如果一年就拖一次，而且是五邁以上，十邁以內，費用是$75。與AAA的$99相比，便宜$24。
對於隻是要應急，車基本不壞的人們，這起碼是個可以考慮的選擇。
Allstate (NYSE:ALL) announced free lifetime roadside assistance membership to consumers that call an Allstate agent or 1-888-Allstate. The promotion, "Shop Less Get More," will run through the end of 2011 and includes national advertisements featuring Dennis Haysbert.
"All it takes is a call to an Allstate agent and individuals can take advantage of a unique offer to increase their protection while saving money," said Mark LaNeve, executive vice president and chief marketing officer, Allstate Insurance Company. "This is yet another way that Allstate is demonstrating its commitment to reinventing auto insurance and delivering value to consumers."
Good Hands Roadside Assistance, which Allstate introduced last year, is the first free-to-join, pay-per-use, roadside assistance service that is available to all drivers, not just Allstate customers.
A member in need of roadside assistance can call 1-800-ALLSTATE and receive access to a 24/7 nationwide network of reputable towing companies. The program offers pre-negotiated, flat rates that the average consumer may not be able to access without a membership. Consumers with passenger cars or light trucks will pay a flat rate of $75 for a tow up to 10 miles and $50 for other roadside events such as service for a flat tire, a dead battery or keys locked inside a car.
