Show RV Show, May 11, Auto clubs c0 t l By SAM LAWTON Copley News Service There are two unfortunate things about cars. The first is that they use gasoline, which, during the present energy crunch, makes many people long for the return of the horse and buggy days. The second problem is that cars will inevitably develop some problem which prevents drivers from reaching their destinations. While the politicians and oil companies ponder the question of gasoline, there is an immediate answer to disabled cars. Some 25 million Americans have discovered the nations automobile clubs, which provide services ranging from emergency towing, to trip planning and bail bond cer- tificates. There are as many reasons for joining an auto club as there are clubs, but emergency road service is the feature most people use most. Few people have not experienced an unexpected flat tire, dead battery, radiator leak, empty gas tank or common maladies which leave the car temporarily and the driver disabled service stations In the West, and do not have outlets in the Eastern United States. Some clubs solve this problem by reimbursing the motorist for When service. emergency road service is needed, a member simply calls the garage nearest to where he is, pays for the service and then files a claim. The Ward Auto Club follows this system and will reimburse members up to $30 each time they need road service, a service call or towing. towing We found this to be the most effective Cremer system, says. It eliminates long waits for tow trucks to show up, and there is usually an independent towing service available for quicker action. The major clubs have recently expanded their services to include certain special coverages for members inclub-affiliat- ed volved in accidents. In addition to the towing services, some clubs will reimburse drivers for com- mercial transportation, food and lodging or car rental when their car is disabled in an accident more than 50 miles from home. Despite the gasoline shortage Cremer, president of the Montgomery Ward Auto Club, the cost of joining an auto club for one year is often less than a single towing charge, and the protection is well worth the and higher prices, family vacations by car are still the most practical alternative for many people, and certain automobile clubs provide a variety of special services for travelers. These include free personalized trip routing, hotel and motel guides, and, in some cases, discounts on hotel and the service is available car will be. Some clubs, for motel accommodations of up to 10 percent and 30 percent car rental discounts.

Although no one expects to get in trouble away from home, the clubs know it can happen, and some offer arrest bond coverage and-o- r bail bond coverage.
