What Does Roadside Assistance Cover?
A complete auto policy combines several coverage types. Mix and match based on your state requirements, budget, and how you use your vehicle.
Towing Service
Tows your vehicle to the nearest qualified repair shop if it cannot be driven. Towing distance limits vary by policy — typically 15–100 miles.
Lockout Service
Sends a locksmith or technician to unlock your vehicle if you lock your keys inside — available 24/7 nationwide.
Flat Tire Change
A technician comes to your location and mounts your spare tire. If no spare is available, your vehicle is towed to the nearest tire shop.
Dead Battery Jump Start
Jump-starts your vehicle's dead battery on-site. If a jump start does not work, your vehicle is towed to a service center.
Emergency Fuel Delivery
Delivers a small amount of fuel to your location if you run out of gas. You pay only for the fuel, not the service call.
Winching / Vehicle Extraction
Gets your vehicle unstuck from mud, sand, or a ditch within a short distance of a public road.
Insurance Roadside vs. Standalone Plans
Insurance Roadside vs. AAA
AAA membership costs $60–$170/year. Adding roadside assistance to your auto policy typically costs $5–$15/year per vehicle — often providing comparable service at a fraction of the cost.
One Call for Everything
When you add roadside to your auto policy, one call handles service dispatch and coverage verification. No separate membership cards or apps required.
No Claims Impact
Roadside assistance calls are generally not counted as claims and do not affect your insurance premium — use it without hesitation when you need it.
Bundled with Your Auto Policy
Adding roadside assistance at policy inception costs less than adding it mid-term or purchasing a standalone plan. VKOVR includes it with every auto quote.
Roadside Assistance: Maximum Value, Minimal Cost
One of the most cost-effective add-ons in auto insurance. Here is why it belongs on every policy.
Less Than AAA
Roadside through your auto policy typically costs under $15/year per vehicle vs. $60–$170 for an AAA membership — similar service at a much lower cost.
Bundled Discount Available
Adding roadside assistance when bundling your auto with home insurance can be included at no additional cost from select carriers.
Multi-Vehicle Savings
Adding roadside assistance to multiple vehicles on the same policy costs less per vehicle than separate coverage for each.
No Claim Surcharge
Using roadside assistance does not trigger a surcharge or rate increase at renewal — you pay the same annual fee regardless of how many times you use it.
