[QUOTE="GeneW, post: 3386412, member: 27284"] Sounds like you got a "contractor" that AAA hired for the location and time. For Example, I'm in Oklahoma City and most, but not all of the drivers/techs are actually AAA employees driving AAA owned equipment. In more rural areas AAA, and the car insurance policy you have will just refer the task to whoever they can get to go. Often those are just locally owned wrecker services and NOT AAA employees. I had a flat tire last fall in OKC at I-40/Reno & MacArthur. When I made the call and hung up, the fantastic young man with David's Towing, an independly owned company but contracted to AAA, showed up in 4 minutes and got started on my flat. 3 Minutes later a AAA guy showed up to take care of me, but was obviously not needed. The 1st guy got my tire changed and flat put back in my trunk in less than 4 minutes and departed. Yeah, I try to avoid trying to change flat tires, I'm now a senior citizen and have some issues with manual labor, unlike when I was younger, so it's easier to get it taken care of than me having to go see the Chiropractor for awhile. You younger guys should remember that while you're still young, take care of your back and body. I can tell you for a fact that the AAA drivers/techs who are employeed by AAA are closely monitored and graded. I can also tell you that the "contractors" here in OKC are also closely monitored and graded. Out in the more rural areas, well your kinda out on your own anyway. [/QUOTE]
