Why Some Vehicles Require Towing After a Two-Vehicle Collision
Not every roadway collision results in injuries, but vehicles may still need to be removed if they cannot be driven safely. Damage to the suspension, steering components, wheels, or other mechanical systems can leave a vehicle inoperable even when exterior damage appears limited.
When towing is required, a suitable tow truck is selected based on the vehicle’s type and condition. Larger SUVs, luxury vehicles, and vehicles with drivetrain concerns may require a flatbed to prevent additional damage during transport. Once the roadway is cleared, vehicle owners typically work with their insurance provider and repair facility to determine the extent of the damage and whether repairs are practical.
