Woman Out of Gas on Road
Running out of gas while driving can be stressful, but you’re not alone. At Chain Gang Towing & Recovery, we’re here to help you handle this situation safely and get you back on the road as quickly as possible. Whether you’re in Hillsborough, Woodbridge, Bridgewater, Raritan, Montgomery, or Bedminster, we’ve got your back. Here’s a simple guide to follow if you find yourself low on fuel.

 

Safely Pull Over

Your safety is the most important thing. As soon as you notice you’re running out of gas, try to move your vehicle to the side of the road, away from traffic. If you’re on a highway, the shoulder is the safest place to stop. Be sure to turn on your hazard lights to alert other drivers.

Take a Deep Breath and Assess

Once you’ve stopped, take a moment to evaluate the situation. If there’s a gas station nearby and it’s safe to walk, that might be your best option. However, if the area feels unsafe or the distance is too far, it’s better to stay in your vehicle and call for help.

Safety Tips While You Wait

  1. Stay in your vehicle with the doors locked until help arrives.
  2. Keep your hazard lights on so you’re visible to other drivers.
  3. If you need to get out of the car, be very careful, especially if you’re near traffic or crossing roads.
  4. At night, keep your headlights and interior lights on for visibility.
