My insurance was telling me it would be a couple hours before they could get me help and I was getting scared that someone would hit me there. The Road Ranger showed up with his magic orange cones that made people move over and he got me safely back on the road. I am extremely grateful. ”

“The Road Ranger was our hero on I 95 sometime before 7:00 am in the morning. We had a tire blow. We are AAA members, they gave us no immediate hope. We have State Farm Insurance, we called them – such a tedious process! And State Farm charged the credit card ahead of time for a tow (we cancelled). The Road Ranger bravely said “no problem, I do this all the time”. He changed the highway side tire in no time, directed us to an exit with tire places and we were on our way back to Virginia. He is a very nice guy and we can’t thank him or your service enough. And we are happy our insurance company sponsors this program.”

“A piece of metal was thrown out of a lawn mower and hit the side of my truck and took out the passenger front side tire. There wasn’t much space for me to pull over, since it was the passenger side and needed to be on solid ground. It was difficult just getting out of my truck, no one would move over and I felt very unsafe. The Road Ranger on Route #11, was a life saver. Seriously! He put up cones and a sign. He was a huge help in changing my tire and getting the spare tire on. He put the tire on while I tied what was left of the damaged tire into the back of my truck. I definitely owe a huge THANK YOU to him for being there to help me. My wife said he answered her prayers! Thank you to all the Road Rangers out there giving aid to us drivers. We definitely appreciate them being out there to help all in need. Best regard, Bill”

“We had been on the road for over 3.5 hours already and our insurance company had not had any response from any tow truck or mechanic to change and evaluate the flat tire. We were looking at another 2 hours of waiting according to our Insurance company. I called the police in GA (we were on the FL side of the border).

He was quick and helpful and assured us we were good to go but get the regular tire looked at the next day. He helped load the damaged tire into our car and bid us goodbye.

“This Road Ranger quite possibly saved my life. Stopped at a rest stop to nap during a late night drive from Atlanta to Miami (visiting Mom for the holidays). Woke up to a dead battery at 1am. Nobody at the stop, found a security guard that couldn’t help with a jump but he offered me the road rangers number. My insurance covers roadside assistance, called them first. They sent me Meth-head Mike, the guy couldn’t find the rest stop. Pretty sure it’s the only one between 75 and Jax headed eastbound. Anyway that wasted 2 hours. New car (hybrid), so pop the hood and there’s no battery. Ok no prob, search the web for make, model and location of battery. Phone battery dies. Car is dead so can’t charge it. Weather turns and it starts to pour on me. This weather system is the tail end of a coldsnap so temp is in the 40’s so now i’m wet and cold. Able to find a wall plug at the rest stop and begin phone charging, fire off a call to Road Rangers, still hoping roadside assistance will show and save the day. Almost zero bars (no service) on the phone and all the hybrid tutorials are videos, so that’s not going to load easy. It’s holiday so the car is packed with stuff and I begin to unload .. again in the rain.. in 40deg weather. Oh … also the hatchback won’t open because there’s no key entry for it .. all controlled by a keyfob and again the battery is dead. So to open the hatchback you must crawl into the back from the front seat and find some super secret latch and disengage with a screwdriver. Guess who doesn’t have a screwdriver? It’s dark, i’m soaked, it’s really getting cold and i’m using a folding knife for a job where you shouldn’t be using a folding knife. The back of the car lights up … It’s the Road Ranger in his HERO truck … with jumper cables a screwdriver and a smile. Battery is so dead it takes 20 min to fire up. I offer him my last $20 cause he possibly saved me from pneumonia, he declines. I just want to hug him. He of course doesn’t want that. 5 hrs after my car fails to start i’m back on the road. He is a national treasure. A humble guy just doing his job. Please, if you’re know him well enough to hug him, give him a good one for me. Sean McIntyre”

The Road Ranger provided great service. My car broke down yesterday and my emergency flashers drained the battery. He cones off the area for safety and then jumped the battery for us. He also made sure we were good and didn’t need anything else.
