Don't count on it. But the tow operator insurance in the us of a
should be very insistent that they carry them for liability
purposes :-))))))

??? If you are in control of the process when you call AAA or whatever
autoclub you are with
in the states you CAN (and should) make it abundantly clear what it's
flatbed, rollers of the trucker takes a hike.

If you are not sensible enough choosing a parking spot and you are
being towed in your absence
(gawd bless tow efficient us of a) then it's a liability for the tow
operator and they'd probably want to do it right
since they generally can't get inside to get the car into neutral and
get it off the parking brake.
Or can they?
