In 2009, we ran a support vehicle (4x4 Expedition with FULL insurance just like the wreckers) to give people a ride home when we were too busy or it was too dangerous to do the recovery right then.  Got them home, didn't charge for this, then recovered the car in the middle of the night when there was little to no traffic and visibility was better and delivered the car to their house.</blockquote>
