Roadside Assistance Coverage
Roadside assistance covers common disablement events such as towing, jump starts, lockouts, and flat tires, based on the plan selected.

How this coverage works
Policy coverage versus a membership
Roadside assistance on an auto policy is tied to the vehicles listed on the policy. Membership programs are usually tied to the person, which can matter if you drive vehicles you do not own.
Both approaches are valid. The right choice depends on how many vehicles you insure and how often you drive vehicles that are not yours.
