Following road rules and taking safety measures should always be a priority when you\u2019re on the road. But sometimes, things can take a little turn and get out of control.

If you get into an accident while driving one of our cars, it\u2019s important to understand what you need to do to help yourself in that situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Does the Car Need to Be Towed?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In case of severe accidents where the car is undrivable or damaged, a towing service is required to transport the car elsewhere for necessary actions. It is very common that you\u2019ll get approached by a number towing services asking if you need any help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, these towing trucks may not be SOCAR\u2019s authorised towing vendors. So what should you do? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

After reporting the incident to SOCAR\u2019s Customer Support via Live Chat and taking other necessary steps, our team will head out to the scene to support our towing vendors. It is important on your part to recognise which towing vendors have the authority to take care of the car. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

SOCAR Authorisation Card<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our authorised vendors should carry an authorisation card that permits them to take care of a SOCAR vehicle. The card can be shown to either PDRM or other towing vendors as proof that they are authorised by SOCAR. Any towing vendors who cannot present the card are not permitted to manage the SOCAR vehicle. Should you need our vendors to clarify, please request for their authorisation card.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Or you can also refer to the following list of our authorised towing vendors:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
