AAP gives senior citizens a discount on towing

 As part of the Automobile Association Philippines’ (AAP) public service program, senior citizens will be given a 20 percent discount on towing service at the country’s major expressways including the North Luzon Expressway (NLEX), Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway (SCTEX), the Skyway and ground-level expressway from Magallanes to Alabang, and the South Luzon Expressway (SLEX). AAP, through its subsidiary AAPLINGKOD, is the exclusive Emergency Roadside Service (ERS) provider at the above expressways.

Only senior citizens who are not AAP members may avail of the discount since AAP members are entitled to free towing service as part of their membership benefits. The senior citizen must be the registered owner of the motor vehicle and present during the towing intervention. The discount applies to Class 1 vehicles only. Implementation will begin June 12, 2010, in time for the celebration of the 112th Independence Day of the Philippines.
