Turn on your hazard lights as soon as the car starts to fail. Steer toward the right shoulder and stop as far from the lane as you can. Traffic on I-35, MoPac and US-183 moves fast, so every extra foot helps.
Stay buckled inside when the shoulder is narrow. Standing outside next to a highway is more dangerous than waiting in the car. When you must get out, use the passenger side and stand behind the guardrail.
Call dispatch at (737) 228-3221 and give your mile marker, your direction of travel or the nearest exit. Tell the dispatcher what happened. Marsh Towing confirms a flat-rate price before the truck rolls.
Texas law requires drivers to move over or slow down for a stopped tow truck with flashing lights. Keep your hazards on until the truck arrives, so the driver can find you and other drivers see you.
