A car trip is always full of surprises. The world is so arranged that troubles lie in wait for drivers while driving almost every moment. A prudent motorist differs from a careless rider in that he constantly has in stock everything that may be needed on the way. One of these items is a towing cable, without which, in the event of a serious breakdown of the car, you cannot get home or to the nearest car service station.

Instructions
Step 1
Far from federal highways, it is unlikely that anyone will succeed in delivering a faulty car to a car service station using a tow truck. In the Russian provinces, the situation with such services is not the best. So the only way out of this situation in these places is to tow the car with a cable.
Step 2
Each vehicle must be equipped with towing hooks (trucks) or shackles (cars). On domestic passenger cars, towing lugs are welded to the side members on the right side, front and rear. Often the brackets are located behind the bumpers and are covered with decorative shields.
Step 3
Having removed the shield from the bumper, it is necessary to put on the hook of the towing cable with a latch on the bracket from above, which will further prevent the cable from spontaneously falling at the moment of its loosening during the provision of technical assistance by the towing vehicle.
