TRAVEL IN THE REST OF EUROPE In several parts of Europe, if you break down on a motorway or other major public road the police will answer the phones. They will arrange for a local recovery company to send a recovery truck to you without contacting us. You will be required to pay for their service on the spot. These charges are not covered under the terms of this policy. We recommend that you request recovery to the next slip road; we are then able to provide assistance once the vehicle is off the motorway.
