We had a front tire blowout on Interstate 25. Just then Darla with CDOT Safety Patrol pulled up behind us with lights flashing; what a relief! Thank you to Darla and CDOT Safety Patrol for saving us...time, money & frustration! P.S. Thanks, GEICO for sponsoring this program

He checked on me. Helped me get a tow and stayed with me until the tow truck showed up. Exceptional service!!

I had a blowout on the freeway and managed to get to the shoulder. Before I could even come up with a plan, Ian appeared. He was polite and made quick work of locating my spare, checking it’s pressure and changing my tire. He kept me informed the entire time, and I never even left my truck. Ian got me back on the road in no time! Thank you for your help!

We had a tire blowout on our boat trailer. The start of a very busy highway on Memorial Day weekend, and we are so very thankful John stopped to help us. John was very polite and caring. Also, thankful GEICO and NH DOT have this service.

We broke down on Friday, May 24 late at night. The Pennsylvania Turnpike Safety Patrol driver Ryan called a tow truck and stayed with us until it arrived. He made sure my son, who is in a wheelchair, and I were safely taken home. We cannot express our gratitude at how professional he was.

I experienced a flat tire in a construction zone and had no choice but to pull over and attempt to change the tire. The prospect of changing the tire was frightening at best, when out of the blue the GEICO safety patrol truck pulled up driven by Mac. As a 73 year-old man I was never so happy to have his assistance as he, in NASCAR fashion, removed the flat and installed the spare! The service provided was valuable and extremely appreciated!

I had a flat tire that shredded, and I had to pull off on the shoulder. Jonathan was able to change the tire very quickly, in a matter of minutes, and had us safely on our way again. I can't say enough good things about Jonathan and the service he provided. I am very thankful for theservice provided by NCDOT and GEICO.

I was having tire pressure issues and had to pull off the interstate. I saw a GEICO Ohio DOT freeway safety patrol pull in behind me, I was thinking I had done something wrong- but Chris was SO kind, and took amazing care of me. Filled my tires back up in a timely manner and I was off! Thank you SO much. I wasn’t aware of this service but it truly made my day.

-Emily, OH

They were right on the scene when my tire blew out and had everything to get me back on the road.

We stopped, thinking we had a tire blowout. Our wonderful helper, thanks to GEICO, was there within a few minutes. He discovered that it wasn’t a tire issue but rather a broken rim. He replaced our tire and had us on our way within a few minutes. My husband and I are in our 80’s and we are so thankful for your service.
