Several years ago my M-5 had to be towed. I requested a flatbed which AAA
sent while I was at work. My wife called a few hours later and said that the
BMW had rolled off the flatbed while they were loading it and the front
bumper fell off after it hit a tree...It was all due to an inexperienced kid
doing the towing for the AAA. Never again. I think the repair costs (which
their insurance paid), were about $5,500.
