flatbed tow truck

A flatbed tow truck is a vehicle designed to transport other vehicles safely. It has a large, flat platform at the back that can be tilted or lowered to ground level, allowing cars to be driven or winched onto it. This setup reduces the risk of further damage during transport, especially for vehicles that are damaged or immobile. Flatbed trucks are commonly used for towing cars that cannot be driven, expensive vehicles, or for long-distance transportation. They provide a secure and stable platform, ensuring the vehicle stays safe and steady during transit.
