Break Down Advice

Just wondered - if you break down in the road and you don't have a mobile, any break down numbers or any change on you (usually me when I drive to the woods for a walk) what is the best thing to do?

I'm not being smart - the answer is just don't get yourself in that situation. Have your mobile and the numbers. It's crazy not to.
(Yes I have got a daughter I worry over.................)

True but I'm so scatty I just rush out with dog treats, lead and water - I never remember my phone. It just struck me today that I woulnd't know what to do if it happened (I saw someoen break down at a junction).

Best thing to do is stay with the vehicle until you see another one passing-then flag it down and ask them to notify a breakdown service,garage or the Police.If you are in an isloated place-best to lock yourself inside the car until a car comes,but use common sense-because there are some weirdos out there!

Always best to keep a mobile on you though-just in case...

Put the local garage/the AA/RAC/GreenFlag number in your mobile NOW , put your mobile beside the dog treats/car keys before you even start to get ready to go out.
Pick it up as you go, put it in your glove compartment - sorted.
Don't you need your mobile? - what if your dog hurt itself badly on the walk?.....have you got the vet number in your phone?

Aghghghgh, really good advice, thank you. :smt021

just remember ur phone i always have mine on me incase of emergency! my mobile has the pickupservices already on it for some reason

we are the same we never remember the mobile

Make sure you've got a kit of stuff in your glove box anyway - coz they could come in handy - first aid kit including gloves - important in case you witness accident and need to help someone, torch, whistle - important, reflectors, and if you really felt the need, a pager that is used in emergencies only - but make sure you've got a spare set of batteries.

What a nag I sound above Sorry
(but I still think we all need to do what we can to keep ourselves safe)
