In an effort to reduce impaired driving, AAA will be offering its “ Tow-to-Go ” service. It will be widely available in Florida and 10 other states. AAA has already projected that there will be some 71.7 million Americans taking road trips during the Thanksgiving stretch this year, a record number of travelers for the holiday.

Beginning on Wednesday, The Auto Club Group will also launch its free ‘Tow to Go’ service, which is aimed at preventing impaired driving.

To stop drivers from getting behind the wheel while under the influence, AAA is offering free rides home over the Thanksgiving weekend.

COLUMBIA, S.C. (WOLO)– AAA has some tips for last minute Thanksgiving travelers. If you have not hit the road yet, it’s best to avoid afternoon traffic, you could head out Thanksgiving morning when traffic might be lighter.

The AAA program, which ends at 6 a.m. Monday, Dec. 2, is available in Florida as well as Georgia, Iowa, Michigan, North Dakota, Nebraska, Tennessee, Colorado (Denver), North Carolina (Charlotte), Indiana (Fort Wayne/South Bend). The service, which offers a ride for drivers and vehicle towing, is free but AAA urges it to be used as a last resort.

Millions of Arizonans are expected to go behind the wheel or fly to their Thanksgiving Day destination this week, which means the roads and airports will be packed.
