Towing out a vehicle that is stuck
Take great care when towing out a vehicle
whose drive wheels have become embedded
in loose earth or mud, particularly if
the vehicle is laden.
Do not jolt the vehicle or tow it at an angle.
You could otherwise damage the chassis.
Never attempt to tow out a vehicle with a
trailer attached.
If possible, tow out vehicles backwards
along the track it took previously.
