Sexually Assaulted by a Tow Truck Driver – AAA

If you have ever had car or vehicle problems while out on the highways and byways, you may have called a tow truck operator or an AAA truck driver service for roadside assistance. These tow truck drivers are called in the event of an emergency, and are available 24/7 to help stranded motorists on the road. But some of these tow truck and AAA truck drivers take advantage of a person out of an area, in an unpopulated location, and perpetrate a sexual assault on the driver of the stranded car.

In the event that this has happened to you, you should call our law office immediately. We are able to discuss your sexual assault case with you, and walk you through the steps to initiating a lawsuit on the merits of your case. You are within your rights to bring a legal action against a tow truck operator or an AAA truck driver who sexually assaults a woman or a man.

Tow Truck Drivers Can Drive a Variety of Tow Truck Rigs

There is no standard tow truck driver, as there are many different types of rescue and tow truck rigs that operate as a tow truck. That means that the tow truck will be called to assist a stranded driver. The tow truck drivers can work individually, in a sole business or for a company that also has tow trucks in the fleet of trucks.

Tow truck drivers drive a variety of rigs that count as tow trucks. Tow truck carrier classifications include:

• Light duty tow trucks
• Car carriers
• Medium duty tow trucks
• Low boy trailers
• Heavy duty tow trucks

Tow trucks are rated on the gross vehicle weight, gross axel rate, curb weight, safe towing capacity and other working load limits. What is important to know, is that tow truck drivers are needed on our nation’s highways and byways to help motorists in need. But if a tow truck driver assaults someone who he or she is helping on the road, this is not acceptable behavior from the tow truck driver. No one expects to call a tow truck operator or an AAA truck driver, and have that person to sexually assault the stranded driver.

In the case where tow truck operator or an AAA truck driver perpetrates a sexual assault on a client or customer, then that tow truck driver is acting unprofessionally outside the bounds of the job. A person who sexually assaults you is committing a criminal action. You are within your rights to bring an action at law against that individual for personal injuries, trauma and losses suffered because of experiencing a sexual assault.
