We have probably all done this: stepped out of the car for a quick errand and forgotten to take the keys. When this happens, who do you call for help?
Locked Out
It is much easier now than it was with older cars to get locked out. If you forget to pocket your keys just once and the doors lock behind you, your day (or at least a chunk of it) is going to be ruined.
Many of us have been taught to call the police in this situation. However, with the advent of electronics in doors, police don’t want to be responsible for possibly ruining your door’s electronics and costing you a lot of money in repairs. The only exceptions to this are if the car is running or if there are children or pets stuck inside.
Get Help Quickly
Who do you call for help, then? Many companies now specialize in helping people with emergency situations such as vehicle lock outs Tucker GA. It might be a good idea to check your area and add a highly rated “rescue” company’s number to your phone, just in case.
You want roadside assistance from someone calm and pleasant because you might be a little stressed out by this point. To them, it’s just another day’s work, something quick and simple that they have done over and over, even if you are upset and worried about getting to work on time.
Be prepared the next time you take off in your car and make sure you are armed with an emergency roadside assistance contact number in your phone. No one is perfect and that means that sooner or later you will probably need to call for help. Then you will be able to calmly call that number and know that help is about to arrive.
