It is designed as a confidential service for people who did not plan ahead and designate a sober driver, so appointments cannot be booked in advance. The service will take you home and tow your vehicle home or somewhere within 10 miles, even if you aren't an AAA member.
The service is considered to be a last resort if there's no other way home, such as Uber or Lyft.
Tow to Go is offered from 6 p.m. Friday, Sept. 2 until 6 a.m. Tuesday, Sept. 6 to get people home safely in Michigan, Florida, Iowa, North Dakota, Nebraska, Tennessee, Wisconsin, and Colorado. The service is also available in Denver, Colo.; Charlotte, N.C.; and Fort Wayne and South Bend, Ind.
Tow to Go may not be available in rural areas or if weather is severe.
