NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Whether a member of AAA or not, free towing services will be available as a backup plan for impaired drivers from 6 p.m. Thursday through 6 a.m. Monday.

AAA's Tow to Go program is focused on keeping drivers safe during St. Patrick's Day celebrations, but the company asks that its service be treated as a last resort.

If called upon, a tow truck will transport a would-be impaired driver and his/her vehicle within a 10 mile radius to a safe resting location. However, it does limit its service to one passenger per vehicle.

“Although AAA is proud to provide this life-saving program, we urge people to identify a safe ride home before they party, and treat Tow to Go as their last resort,” said Megan Cooper, spokeswoman for AAA – The Auto Club Group.
