Heads up on driving through Houston January 08, 2005, 12:15:26 am Yahoo Message Number: 48918I haven't seen this mentioned here, but for anyone planning on driving through Houston, TX, on the freeways or toll roads, DO NOT break down! As of Jan.1, 2005, if you break down on one of these roads you have 6 minutes to get your vehicle back on the road, or the police will call a tow truck (not of your choice) and you will be towed. You have no say in the matter. You WILL pay whatever the tow truck charges. Even if you have already called your own emergency road service (as in AAA or Good Sam ERS), if they haven't shown up in 6 min., you are S.O.L. One of the state reps is trying to get the law repealed or modified, but it is currently being enforced.Sharon N.
