Roadside emergencies can happen anywhere, including in La Quinta. Do you know how to react if your car breaks down while you are on the road? The team at La Quinta Cadillac wants to help make sure you do.
If you suspect that your vehicle is breaking down, do not hesitate. Get off the road as far as you can. If you end up stuck in the middle of a lane - that is considered an emergency, and calling 911 is appropriate. Turn on your flashers and wait for help to arrive.
If you have made it to the shoulder, you still will want to hit the flashers so that you are visible to vehicles passing by. Call for roadside assistance as soon as you safely can. Make sure you have essentials in your vehicle at all times, such as first-aid supplies, jumper cables, a cell phone and charger, blankets, and water.
