Accident-Damaged Vehicle in Montreal: Preparing for a Safe Tow

Protect people first and follow emergency instructions

After a collision, check whether anyone is injured and contact emergency services when needed. If the vehicle is in a dangerous area, move away from traffic without putting yourself at risk. Do not approach a vehicle with a fire hazard, fluid leak, or unstable position.

Describe the damage before requesting a tow

Explain whether the wheels, steering, or suspension appear affected, whether airbags deployed, and whether the vehicle can move. Also mention its position and available access. A clear description helps prepare towing and recovery equipment.

Avoid actions that could increase the damage

A collision-damaged vehicle may have weakened mechanical or body components. Avoid pushing it, pulling it with another vehicle, or driving it if its condition is uncertain. A towing crew can choose safe attachment points based on the damage.

Choose a transport method suited to the situation

The tow truck depends on the vehicle’s condition, position, and available space. A car stuck in a ditch or off-road may need a winch and recovery before transport. Explain the situation so the equipment can be selected accordingly.
