Towing and Roadside Assistance
If your car needs towing or assistance on the road, we will cover the cost for you. This covers you for each disablement on a covered vehicle subject to a maximum limit per policy.

What is an Antique and Classic Auto?
An antique auto is a vehicle that is 25 years and older. A classic car is considered a vehicle 19 to 24 years old. Both the antique and classic vehicles must be in the original (or original restored) condition. An antique Model T or a classic Mustang convertible might come to mind when you think of cars that fit into this program, but the Antique and Classic Auto Program doesn't only include the obvious. This program is also great for light trucks, motorcycles, farm tractors, military vehicles, foreign and American sport cars, muscle cars, convertibles, station wagons, woodies, Corvettes and other unique original autos.
This program includes:
- Classics
- Antiques
- Woodies
- Muscle Cars
- Foreign and American Sports Cars
What is a Modified Auto?
A modified automobile is simply a vehicle modified from its original condition. Whether it's chopped, channeled, lowered, chromed, Frenched or flamed or it's powered by a flathead, hemi, mouse motor, side oiler, Caddy or an Olds rocket, the Modified Auto Program is the perfect fit.
This program includes:
- Custom/Modified - A vehicle manufactured after 1948, which is at least 20 years old and has been altered from its original condition.
- Exotic - A motor vehicle that is considered to be increasing in value rather than depreciating because of its specific make, model year of manufacture and exceptional physical condition.
