Tow Truck

We were returning home from the airport. Shortly after we got back to Edmonton, we heard a fairly loud sound. Mom thought she hit something on the road, and yet she was certain there wasn't anything on the road. When we made a left turn heading towards the Whitemud Drive, my mom noticed that the steering wheel was really tight. She knew something was wrong. Instead of proceeding to the freeway, she changed lanes and pulled over when it was safe to do so. There was no way we could drive home, so mom called AMA to tow the van to the garage. Thank God the van did not break down when we were on our way to the airport otherwise our friend would have missed the plane.

We were fortunate that we were already in the city making it easier to call for help. We made a couple of phone calls and managed to get hold of a friend to come and give us a ride home.
