Los Angeles Free-ways

The Freeway Service Patrol, funded by a proposition that passed in 1990 (I know, long time ago, but maybe the service has been around for a while and we just never knew about it?), helps stranded motorists gratis. Just dial #399 or call from a freeway call box (and thanks to Francine for getting the word out): http://www.metro.net/projects/fsp/
