This isn’t the first time I’ve heard something like this…

An insurance underwriter named Cara took to TikTok to drop some car insurance knowledge on viewers.

Cara told viewers, “Using roadside assistance on your car insurance counts as a claim against your policy.”

She added, “You are far better off getting AAA or some other roadside service and using that instead.”

Good to know!
