ALDOT expands motorist assistance program in West Alabama
ALDOT expanding program to help stranded drivers By Kelvin Reynolds | February 4, 2021 at 7:01 PM CST - Updated February 4 at 7:01 PM
TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (WBRC) - The Alabama Department of Transportation is offering more help to people who run into car problems on the Interstate in Tuscaloosa County. ALDOT is putting more time and mileage into its driver assistance program in West Alabama. ASAP, short for Alabama Service and Assistance Patrol, is growing to help more drivers.
“They’re getting out doing something on their car. They really don’t know what to do or they’re waiting for somebody. Being on the shoulder of the interstate sometimes can be harrowing with the speeds people travel at. So by having someone who comes out there and is professional really gives them a lot of ease,” said John McWilliams, a spokesperson for ALDOT.
