Entrusting your car or motorcycle to a tow truck requires total trust. Under Spanish transport legislation (Ley de Ordenación de los Transportes Terrestres - LOTT), professional vehicle recovery companies are legally mandated to maintain comprehensive liability and cargo insurance.
Mandatory Insurance Coverage for Towing Services
- Carrier Liability Insurance (Seguro de Responsabilidad Civil de Carga): Covers any physical damage occurring during winching, platform loading, transit, and unloading.
- General Business Liability Insurance: Protects against third-party property damage or personal injury during roadside operations.
What to Check When Hiring a Tow Truck
Reputable towing services display active transport license numbers (Tarjeta de Transporte) and provide official invoices detailing vehicle registration, origin, and destination. In the unlikely event of damage during transport, official insurance covers full repair costs.
