What To Do When Your Car Breaks Down
A simple step-by-step guide to staying safe and getting help quickly when your vehicle stops unexpectedly.

1. Stay Calm and Move to Safety
If possible, move your vehicle to the side of the road, away from traffic. Turn on your hazard lights immediately.
2. Make Yourself Visible
At night or in low visibility, use reflective triangles or lights if you have them. Stay away from fast-moving traffic.
3. Call for Assistance
Once you are safe, call a professional towing service. In Southern Albania, you can reach Karrotrec Rigelsi 24/7 at +355 69 27 28 054.
4. Share Your Exact Location
Use WhatsApp location sharing or a map pin to send your exact position. This reduces waiting time and avoids confusion.
5. Wait in a Safe Place
If it's safe, stay inside the vehicle with doors locked. If the road is dangerous, move to a safe area away from traffic.
