    I’ve been driving around Abu Dhabi for about six years now and somehow I’ve managed to avoid needing a tow or recovery service until this week. My car broke down on the way back from Dubai yesterday evening, right around the Shahama area, and I had to wait almost two hours for a recovery truck to show up after calling one of those numbers you see posted on the side of the road. Honestly the whole experience was pretty frustrating, the guy who eventually came was nice enough but it took forever and I was stuck on the side of the road in the heat with my family which wasn’t exactly fun. It got me thinking that I should probably have a reliable contact saved in my phone for situations like this, because you never know when something might go wrong and the last thing you want is to be scrambling around trying to find someone trustworthy. I’ve seen a few companies advertising reliable car recovery in Abu Dhabi but I’m not sure which ones actually show up on time and don’t overcharge. I drive a 2016 Accord that’s been pretty solid overall but it’s getting older now and things are starting to wear out. Does anyone have a recovery service they’ve used multiple times and would recommend? I’d especially like to know about response times and roughly what they charge for a standard tow within the city. Figure it’s better to be prepared than to go through that stressful experience again.
