It happens more often than you think — you’re driving, the gas light comes on, and before you can find a station, your car sputters to a stop. Don’t panic. Here’s what to do:
1. Pull Over Safely
The moment you notice your vehicle struggling, steer it to the shoulder or a safe area off the road. Turn on your hazard lights to alert other drivers.
2. Stay Inside the Vehicle
If you’re on a busy highway or unfamiliar area, it’s safer to remain in your car with doors locked until help arrives.
3. Avoid Walking to a Gas Station
Walking miles on foot, especially in extreme weather or at night, is risky. Carrying a gas can isn’t always safe or allowed either. That’s where we come in.
4. Call for Fuel Delivery
With US Auto Transporters and Towing, fuel delivery is just a phone call away. We’ll bring enough gas to get you to the nearest station — fast, safe, and hassle-free.
5. Prevent It Next Time
Make it a habit to refill your tank once it drops below a quarter. It’s a small step that can save you from major inconvenience.
