You don’t get roadside assistance with your insurance company, you get reimbursement for your roadside expenses. Big difference at 11:00 at night on a weekend and 10 below out, 100 miles from home, and no phone book in the car for the town you happen to be nearest to. I’m a big fan of the auto clubs for one number to call 24hrs a day and they find the service for you. I also have the insurance for reimbursement but its not the same.
I looked at that green service and it seemed less reliable and far more costly than AAA, Amoco or the other major services. I’m starting to wonder about Amoco though since it seems they may have outsourced their call center to India. When the wife needed it a while back at the airport, the person she talked to couldn’t find MINNEAPOLIS on the map.
