Bike Week is Here

by

Every year more than a half million people make the trek to Daytona Florida for the annual Bike Week. This year, the 76th Annual Bike Week kicks off on Friday March 10, 2017 and continues through Sunday March 19. Throughout the 10-day festival, motorcycles fans from across the county can share their appreciation for all things bike related while enjoying everything from concerts to rallies. Of course the best way to get to Bike Week is on your motorcycle, and once there a great deal of time is spent on rides. When logging so many hours on the road it’s crucial to make sure you protect yourself from mechanical breakdowns while on the road.

The best way to protect your bike and yourself from mechanical breakdowns, accidents, and other vehicle problems is to make sure you perform routine maintenance on your motorcycle before heading out, to make sure you are aware of your surroundings and inattentive drivers while you are out, and finally to purchase roadside assistance coverage in case any emergencies along the way.

Before heading to Bike Week make sure your motorcycle is in top shape. Take care of routine maintenance issues like checking and replacing air filters, inspecting tire tread and pressure, checking fluid levels, inspecting brakes, making sure your battery is charged, and inspecting all lights and cables. Performing these routine maintenance tasks helps insure that your journey to Bike Week and your rides once arriving go smoothly.

Once your bike is running smoothly and you are on your way make sure that you are aware of your surroundings. If you are traveling a great distance, know what type of weather conditions you may encounter on the way there or back. In many areas pockets of winter weather may still pop up in early to mid-March. Be prepared for this if your route to Bike Week takes you through these areas. Additionally, remember that other drivers on the road may not be attentive. You need to be extra vigilant when riding in traffic and make sure you are driving defensively.

Regardless of how well you maintain your motorcycle mechanical emergencies can sideline you, and no matter how vigilant you may be accidents can happen. Having roadside assistance coverage for your motorcycle insures that you will never be left stranded on the side of the road. Best Roadside Service is one of the few TOP RATED providers of motorcycle roadside assistance.  The motorcycle roadside assistance plans offered from Best Roadside Service  provide all the traditional roadside assistance benefits for your motorcycle including; 24/7 coverage anywhere in the USA and Canada, emergency towing service via flatbed, battery jumpstart service,  up to 3 gallons of fuel delivery ( gas is free!), and emergency personal assistance such as access to trip and routing services, VIP discounts for travel services and hotels, and concierge service to help you plan your trip to Bike Week.

Performing routine maintenance tasks and being attentive while on the road can go a long way towards protecting you while you ride. Purchasing a roadside assistance plan for your motorcycle can provide you with the peace of mind necessary to enjoy your trip to this year’s Bike Week.

When to Use Tire Chains on Your Vehicle

by

Winter is officially here, and along with it comes snowstorms, black ice, and other dangerous driving conditions. While experienced drivers in regions that regularly experience winter weather generally know how to deal with winter driving conditions, new drivers and those who live in areas not typically affected with extreme winter weather may not know how to with poor road conditions. Losing traction in the snow can be a driver’s worst nightmare and tire chains can be an effective solution; however, it is important to know when and how tire chains should be used.

The use of tire chains may be regulated by law and different states have different laws regulating their usage. Before purchasing or installing chains on your tires be sure to check whether they are legal in your state. Additionally, some states may require tire chains in order to drive in certain areas. If you are new to a state, or plan on traveling in a state that experiences extreme winter weather, check to see if you will be required to carry/install tire chains to pass checkpoints.

Additionally, when purchasing tire chains for your vehicle, it is important to make sure that they properly fit the tires as well as the vehicle. While tire chains are available for most tire sizes, it is important that there is sufficient clearance for them to fit without damaging the body, brakes, or undercarriage of the vehicle. To find this information check the owner’s manual for specifications and allowances.

It is important that you know how to install and use your tire chains before bad weather hits. Practice putting the chains on and taking them off several times before you actually need them. Getting the hang of this now means you are not stuck fumbling around and trying to get them installed in icy, soggy, or snowy conditions with freezing fingers. Also, remember to keep a safety vest, flares, and safety cones in your vehicle; this way if you have to install or adjust the chains on the side of the road in low visibility conditions you can alert other drivers.

Finally, know what road and weather conditions call for tire chains. You should only use tire chains on your vehicle when there is a layer of snow or ice on the road. Tire chains should not be used on bare pavement as it can damage both your tires and the road itself. If you get to a road that is clearly plowed and salted, pull over and remove the chains. Additionally, when your tires have chains on you should not drive above 30mph.

Make sure tire chains are properly installed. If you have a four-wheel drive vehicle chains should be installed on all four tires. If you have a two-wheel drive vehicle, ideally, you should still have chains on all four tires. However, if you only install chains on two tires on a two-wheel drive vehicle, make sure they are installed on the drive axle.

Even with tire chains winter weather accidents and breakdowns can happen. Purchasing roadside assistance coverage protects you in the event of a winter roadside emergency. Emergency roadside assistance plans cover towing, lost keys or lockouts, running out of gas, dead batteries, and all the other things that can go wrong with your vehicle. Purchasing a plan through Best Roadside Service will cover you in the event your car slides off the road during a winter storm, you run out of gas, or you look your keys in your running car while warming it up. In addition, national chains including Meineke, Aamco, and Jiffy Lube offer discounts to Best Roadside Service customers for car repairs and maintenance. Best Roadside Service offer plans for less than $80 a year, much below the average cost of a single tow, which can range from $120 and up.

Tire chains can make a real difference during the winter months. Extreme road conditions can make it almost impossible to drive. When used safely and appropriately, tire chains can help you get where you need to be all winter long.

Don’t Purchase Roadside Assistance Through Your Car Insurance

The Insider Tip That Car Insurance Companies Don’t Want You To Know

Don’t let the convenience of purchasing roadside assistance coverage through your car insurance company fool you – you could be putting yourself at risk for increased premiums if you ever have to use your roadside assistance plan.

It doesn’t matter what you call in to use your roadside assistance plan for – whether you simply locked your keys in your car, left the light on all night and needed a jump-start, ended up with a flat or blown tire and need a tow, or need your car winched out of a muddy spot – if your roadside assistance plan was purchased through your car insurance provider, your roadside service calls will likely be reported to a centralized data aggregation company.

What does that mean? It means those calls could be used against you in the future in order to charge you higher premiums or as claims against your insurability. Not only will your current insurance provider know about them, but so will potentially any insurance company (or other company that requires risk assessment) you apply with in the future.

The reality of the technological age we live in is that big companies try and track everything they can, and our personal data is gold to them. Some companies may say they use our data to provide us with a better customer experience, or to improve their product or service, but at the end of the day, they ultimately want to track our data for one reason: to make more money.

So, if you have even one or two roadside service claims in a year, it’s possible they could add up to higher fees and premiums for you in the future. Three or more? The possibility becomes much more likely. To an insurance company, multiple claims in a short period could indicate a vehicle or driver with higher financial risk.

No one wants to have to call for roadside service (who was ever glad they got a flat tire?) but you buy coverage so you can use it when you need it, however often you need it, without worrying about it effecting your finances negatively. After all, isn’t the whole point to be covered in the event you do need help and save you money in the long-run?

Another trending issue that might make you think twice before buying your roadside policy through your insurance company, is the recent surge in UBI (usage based insurance) since 2010. The draw of UBI is that consumers may be able to save some money – 10%-15% over their current premiums – and feel they are getting a fairer value, by having their premiums be determined by their real-world usage and driving information. According to a report by LexisNexis Risk Solutions, they seem to expect the upward trend towards usage based insurance to continue in the coming years. But if every roadside service call becomes part of your “usage”, that might not be so much of a benefit.

This trend in user based insurance is another good reason to keep your roadside assistance claims off the books. Having your roadside assistance service calls be reported through your insurance company today, could cost you in the future as the insurance market continues to change.

So how can you make sure you and your loved ones are covered in the event of a flat tire, dead battery, or other roadside breakdown? It’s simple: keep your roadside service separate from your car insurance company.

Since 1950, Best Roadside Service and its service providers have been helping motorists across the United States and Canada with emergency roadside issues like vehicle breakdowns, dead batteries, flat tires, lost keys and running out of fuel.

For as little as $65 a year, you can have your vehicle covered for all minor and major roadside emergencies, no matter who is driving it. You can have the peace of mind knowing you are covered in any roadside emergency and that your service calls will not be tracked by your car insurance company. So, next time your plan comes up for renewal, say you’re going with Best Roadside Service and say no to the insurance company’s roadside plan.

 

New Cars Need Roadside Coverage Too

by

new_car_roadside_assistance

Roadside coverage isn’t just for older model cars. Many people think a new car is more reliable and won’t break down. However, advancements in automotive technology and design come with a whole new set of problems that make roadside assistance coverage a necessity.

According to Consumer Affairs tens of millions of roadside calls required assistance in 2015 with one company alone responding to 32 million calls. Some of the most frequent calls related to automakers removing spare tires, a common design advancement in newer model vehicles. In fact, one-third of all vehicles sold come with no spare tire. Automakers have replaced the traditional spare tire with inflator kits, and equip cars with run-flat tires in an effort to maximize space and reduce vehicle weight. More storage space sounds great, however, run-flat tires and inflator kits are only effective in certain situations. As a result, drivers may need a tow in the event they get a flat. While adding a spare tire as an optional feature is one solution, covering your vehicle with a roadside assistance package will give you peace of mind and allow you to keep all that extra space.

Another advancement leaving drivers stranded is keyless ignition. Remote keys “communicate” with the vehicle whenever they are in close proximity to it. When the key is communicating with the vehicle it is prevented from entering “sleep” mode resulting in a dead battery in the key fob. Additionally, leaving a key fob in the car while it is running can lead to accidental lock-out. Dead key batteries and lock-outs can leave drivers unable to start, or access, their cars. While changing the battery according to the manufacturer’s suggested cycle may help, having roadside coverage assures aid if your key fob stops working or leaves you locked out of your car.

New car drivers aren’t just relying on technology to start their cars they are also counting on warning systems to tell them when they are low on fuel or if their tires are properly inflated. This can leave you out of gas and far from the nearest fuel station.

Purchasing roadside assistance coverage for your new (or old) vehicle eliminates provides peace of mind. Emergency roadside assistance plans cover towing, lost keys or lockouts, running out of gas, dead batteries, and all the other things that can go wrong with your car, truck, SUV, or motorcycle. Purchasing a plan through Best Roadside Service includes benefits such as fluid top offs, fuel delivery, flat tire service, and lost key and lockout service. In addition, national chains including Meineke, Aamco, and Jiffy Lube offer discounts to Best Roadside Service customers for car repairs and maintenance. Best Roadside Service offer plans for less than $80 a year, much below the average cost of a single tow, which can range from $120 and up.

Automotive technological and design advancement have greatly improved vehicle quality and safety creating very reliable cars. But like anything else utilizing technology things can unexpectedly go wrong. Roadside coverage is a necessity for when the unexpected happens.

Roadside Assistance and the Importance of Response Times

by

roadside assistance

Roadside assistance plans and providers are not one-size fits all. When choosing a roadside plan that is right right for you and your family, or your business, you need to consider more than who is driving and what vehicles need to be covered. A top factor to consider is the provider’s average response time. Knowing this information will help you choose a provider, and plan, that gives you the coverage you need when you need it.

Whether you are an individual on vacation with your family or a business owner managing a fleet of vehicles, roadside emergencies can be expensive and waste valuable time. Having a roadside service plan is the best way to minimize costs and save valuable time. However, not all roadside service plans are created equal, and some will have considerably longer response times than others. When choosing a roadside service provider, you need to consider the provider’s average response time to make sure you are getting back on the road as quickly as possible.

Average response time vary significantly depending on the service provider you choose. Response times can range from about a low of about 30 minutes to 60 minutes or more. While many elements can impact response time, the most significant determining factor is how many service response vehicles a company has in a particular area. The greater the number of service response vehicles the faster the response time.

Service-oriented roadside assistance companies will work to have as many providers and response vehicles as possible to lower average response times. Best Roadside Service has more than 45,000 service providers nationwide. Paired with a direct emergency toll-free hotline, open 24 hours-a-day and 365 days-a-year, Best Roadside Service is able to offer an average response time of just 34 minutes.

When deciding which roadside assistance program is right for you, you need to consider a multitude of factors. Price and covered benefits are important considerations. Just as important is the average response time of the company you choose. Finding a roadside assistance provider with a fast average response time will minimize costs and and get you back on the road as quickly as possible.

Most People Need To Rent A Car Eventually

Big Red Rent a Car Neon Sign

Most people need to rent a car eventually. Whether your vehicle has a mechanical failure, you’re in an automobile accident, or it’s time for your annual family vacation, a rental car can help you get where you need to go when you cannot, or do not want to, use your own vehicle. When you approach the rental car counter, knowing whether you need to purchase the car rental company’s roadside assistance plan can save you a lot of money.

 

When you rent a car, the company you choose will offer you a variety of coverage products to protect you in the event the car is damaged. A renter is responsible for damage to the vehicle including damage that occurs as a result of an accident, as well as, damages that result from a roadside assistance emergency. While you will not be responsible for things like transmission or engine trouble unless they are caused directly by you or your negligence, you are responsible for flat tires, lost keys or lockout service, jump starts, towing, and fuel and fluid delivery. You will also be at the mercy of the rental car company and may need to wait long hours for service providers to help you.

 

Car rental companies offer coverage to offset the cost of repair in the event a renter is responsible for a roadside assistance emergency. While the cost varies by location and company it averages about $6.99 per day according to www.best-car-rental-tips.com. Each time you rent a car you would need this coverage if you do not want to be responsible out of pocket. Covering a rental car for just roadside assistance during a two-week family vacation will cost you an additional $97 plus taxes and fees.

 

Paying these extra fees is not always necessary. Your own personal roadside assistance plan may cover you when you rent a vehicle and eliminate the need to spend additional money. When you purchase a roadside assistance plan you typically have the option of purchasing a plan that either follows a specific vehicle(s) or follows a specific driver(s). Best Roadside Service offers individual plans that will follow covered drivers in any vehicle they drive including rental cars. By purchasing an individual plan, you can avoid paying the extra price every time you rent a car and instead use the savings for something else.

 

An advantage to having your own personal roadside assistance coverage, instead of relying on purchasing one through a rental car company, is that you can save money on the car rental fee itself. When you purchase a roadside assistance plan through Best Roadside Service you will receive access to VIP discounts including savings and free upgrades at nationally known rental car companies Enterprise, National, and Thrifty. Additionally, you will have access to more than 45,000 service providers and an average response time of 34 minutes.

 

Next time you rent a car make sure you’re covered by purchasing an individual roadside assistance plan first. This will save you money on the car rental fee, eliminate the need for purchasing costly daily coverage through a car rental company, and will provide you peace of mind in your own vehicle the rest of the year.

Top Misconceptions About Roadside Assistance Coverage

In today’s busy world few things can sideline you faster than a vehicle breakdown. The thought of being stranded on the side of a busy highway, paying exorbitant towing and repair fees, locking your keys in your car, or running out of gas can be stressful. Many people do not understand the ins and outs of what is covered by roadside assistance plans and can easily become overwhelmed; and common misconceptions about roadside assistance coverage add to the confusion. When it comes to roadside assistance coverage there are 2 major misconceptions; first, that roadside assistance only covers towing, and second that coverage is only available near big cities and well-populated areas. Debunking these common misconceptions about roadside assistance coverage can help you better understand the value and protection a roadside assistance plan can provide.

Roadside Assistance Only Covers Towing

A common misconception about roadside assistance coverage is that it only provides towing services. When your vehicle breaks down, whether in your driveway or on the side of the road, you will need to have it towed to a mechanic for repair and roadside coverage includes this service; however, while towing service is a fundamental benefit of roadside assistance coverage it is far from the only benefit.  

 

When your vehicle malfunctions, roadside service providers can also help you put your spare tire on or give you a jump start. If you have locked your keys in your car or run out of fuel roadside service providers can help you with that too. Roadside assistance coverage through Best Roadside Service also comes with value added services including national chain discounts on mechanical repairs and rental cars while your vehicle is in the shop, VIP Travel Concierge, and hotel chain discounts. Knowing all of the services available through your plan allows you to get the most value out of your plan.

Roadside Assistance Is Only Available in Cities and Well-Populated Areas

Another common misconception about roadside assistance coverage is that the services are only going to be available in large cities or well-populated areas. The thought of having a vehicle breakdown, flat tire or, running out of gas in a city is unnerving; the thought of it happening in a rural area at night can be downright scary. Roadside assistance plans don’t just cover you when you are sticking close to the trail though, they provide you service and peace of mind when your travels take you off the beaten path.

 

Roadside assistance plans provide coverage by contracting with service providers from many cities and towns. Through a nationwide network of 45,000 service providers, Best Roadside Service is able to provide comprehensive coverage for a wide variety of vehicle issues. This coverage extends to both the United States and Canada, is available with one phone call to a toll-free emergency hotline, and averages a 34-minute response time. Whether you’re close to home or work, sight-seeing in the city, or taking a family road-trip out west roadside assistance plans have you covered.

 

When you experience car problems, roadside assistance coverage can be irreplaceable. Many people have common misconceptions about roadside assistance plans making it hard to understand all of the benefits a plan can offer. Debunking these common misconceptions, and understanding all the services roadside assistance plans offer, helps you to better understand the value and protections purchasing a roadside assistance plan can provide.

Why Southern Drivers Should Have Roadside Assistance This Winter

by

Be prepared for more snow and ice this winter.

El Nino

In early January of this year, The Weather Channel released their three month outlook for winter weather. The outlook shows that El Nino, a weather pattern that is influenced by ocean temperatures, will be in effect over North America for the remainder of the winter weather months. What this means is that areas in the southern states of America that don’t usually get a lot of snow or precipitation during the winter will likely see more snow, ice and sleet, while their northern and western counterparts will see somewhat less snow and slightly warmer temperatures than normal. This prediction is already turning out to be true as winter storm Jonas sweeps across the southern and eastern  portions of the United States this month.

 

Perhaps nothing is quite so affected by inclement weather as our ability to travel. Driving can become treacherous and sometimes impossible during snow storms, while air travel and some train travel is completely grounded or canceled. For many people, flight and train cancellations means they must take a chance and drive in bad weather to get where they need to be. While we don’t recommend that anyone drive a car in a situation that isn’t safe, we do know that sometimes you simply don’t have a choice but to get behind the wheel.

 

In these cases, and for anyone who regularly deals with inclement weather while driving, a roadside assistance plan is an absolute must. And for those who live in areas that are normally not affected by winter weather, consider adding a roadside assistance plan to your vehicle or to an individual driver in your family as El Nino continues to threaten the south with cold, snowy weather.

 

Roadside assistance companies provide emergency assistance when your vehicle experiences issues. Whether you get a flat tire, run out of gas or other fluids, lock your keys in your car or even if you skid off the road and into a ditch – a roadside service company can provide mechanical help or a tow truck to get you and your vehicle to a safe place. Most roadside service companies have providers across their areas of coverage so that a tow truck, mechanic or locksmith can get to you quickly. But of course, some companies provide better coverage and quicker responses than others. Best Roadside Service, for instance, has over 45,000 service providers across America and Canada. This kind of dense coverage gives them an average response time of just 34 minutes. And when you’re sitting on the side of the road in the cold and the snow – that response time becomes critical.

 

Of course, it’s always good to be prepared, even if you do have a roadside assistance plan, in case something does happen. While you’re waiting for a service provider to come and help you, you’ll want to make sure your vehicle is stocked with water, an ice scraper, extra blankets, maybe even disposable hand and feet warmers, basic tools, a spare tire, and a flashlight. Additional cold weather vehicle preparation tips can be found on this blog: Cold Weather Auto Maintenance Tips.

 

So this winter, be prepared and don’t rely on your normally warm and sunny location to keep you safe. Winter weather can hit at any time, and thanks to El Nino, in any place in the country. A roadside assistance plan can help keep you, your family safe and warm this winter.

Credit Card Companies Drop Roadside Assistance Coverage

by

Many people do not know that their credit card companies may provide additional services beyond loaning money for purchases.

Credit Card Companies are Dropping Member Benefits

In fact, several credit card companies offer services through third party providers for things such as identity theft, travel planning and even roadside assistance. These services are not always marketed to credit card customers very well, and J.D. Power & Associates reports that only about 2/3 of people are even aware of their benefits, and even fewer people are using their credit cards to their full advantage. For this reason, many credit card companies are dropping extra benefits from their cardholder agreements.

In August 2015, Discover issued a new cardholder agreement that stated they intend to “simplify the suite of cardmember benefits that it provides by eliminating certain benefits in order to provide a better customer experience.” What this really means is that they are eliminating benefits to save themselves money. With recent laws in effect that restrict credit card companies on the kind of late fees and interest rates they can charge, many lenders are looking at cutting cardholder benefits and other services to save money and help their bottom line.

In fact, Sears MasterCard recently dropped its rental car collision coverage, travel assistance and roadside assistance benefits, and Bank of America is discontinuing its roadside and travel assistance benefits for its MasterCard Better Balance Rewards cardholders as well. With these heavy hitters leading the pack, it’s a logical assumption that other credit card companies will be following their lead and dropping third party services for their cardholders as well. So whether or not you have one of these cards listed above, you should start looking around for another provider for these services.

Even if you do plan to continue using your credit card company’s services, keep in mind that most credit card companies still charge their cardholders a fee to use their roadside assistance and these fees can run up to $70 per call. At that price, you should consider going with Best Roadside Service’s roadside assistance plan. In fact, a year of roadside assistance with Best Roadside Service, which includes up to 6 calls per year, only costs between $65-$80 depending on the plan chosen. Additionally, Best Roadside Service offers travel assistance, travel concierge services, travel discounts, coupons, a 24-hour emergency hotline, discounts at national automotive maintenance shops and more. Your discounts from these partners might just pay for your annual membership! You don’t have to have a particular credit card to have these services and you don’t have to pay a crazy interest rate to earn them. Individual plans are less than $80/year and vehicle plans are just $65 annually.

Why Choose Best Roadside Service

Going with a company that specializes in roadside assistance is also the only way to ensure you get the best and fastest service. Credit card companies are essentially playing the middle man to their cardholders – creating an additional step and costing the customer more time when they do need help on the side of the road. Best Roadside Service, on the other hand, has an average response time of just 34 minutes. And their service providers respond to over 70,000 calls per month. In the last 50 years, Best Roadside Service has unlocked over 170,000 doors, changed over 340,000 flat tires,  towed over 6.8 million miles and delivered over 60,000 gallons of fuel!

But not all roadside assistance plans and providers are created equal. Whether you want to purchase a plan for a particular vehicle, no matter who is driving it, or a plan for an individual, no matter what vehicle they are driving – you’ll want to compare plans,  and go with a Better Business Bureau A+ rated company that has been providing roadside service for over 50 years to consumers just like you.

The bottom line is that your credit card company is more concerned with their bottom line than customer perks and benefits. Ditch the middle man,  and purchase an independent roadside assistance plan for you and your family from Best Roadside Service!
