    I worked for AAA during this program and literally every single weekend someone would take a car up into the mountains or down the coast and lose cell service…which would then brick the car and leave them stranded in the woods with a Prius they couldn’t even open to get inside. Add fires (thanks PG&E) and mudslides and it was a massive clusterfuck just getting a tow truck to them, which could take hours or days
