Towing without being overcharged
Towing without being overcharged
Call your club or insurer yourself first (ADAC +49 89 22 22 22, HAK 1987); helpers who appear uninvited may be fake.
Lock the car, step away to call, and let nobody touch it until the club confirms by phone.
Do not trust a claim that your club will pay.
If you must use an unknown operator, agree the company, destination and total price first.
Ask for a detailed invoice and pay only under protest.
If pressured or threatened, call 112 or the police; photograph car and plate only if safe.
Keep invoice, proof of payment and papers: only you, as the victim, can file a fraud report.

After an accident
- Stop, switch on the hazard lights and put on a high-visibility vest before you leave the vehicle.
- Warn other traffic with the warning triangle, at the distance the local rules require.
- Check for injured people. If anyone is hurt, call the emergency number and give your position.
- Take photos before vehicles are moved, if it is safe. Move them only when they block traffic or the police tell you to.
- Exchange names, addresses, number plates and insurance details with the other drivers. Note witnesses.
- Do not sign a statement you do not understand or cannot read. Fill in the accident report together if you agree on what happened.
- Tell your insurer or assistance service as soon as you can, and keep every document and receipt.
