A12 Breakdown Recovery Built Around Safety and Fast Help
Breaking down on the A12 can be stressful because many sections are fast dual carriageway and stopping space can be limited. The first priority is your safety. Once you are in a safer place, Baloch Recovery Services can help with car recovery, van recovery, tow truck dispatch and onward towing to your home, garage, depot or another safe address.
Important lay-by tip: if you are stopped in a lay-by or safe stopping point, park as far left as you safely can and leave extra space in front of your vehicle. A recovery truck often needs space to pull in straight, line up the winch and load securely.

What To Do When You Break Down on the A12
Follow these simple steps while waiting for recovery. If your vehicle is in a live lane, anyone is injured, or you feel in immediate danger, contact emergency services first.
1. Hazards On
Turn your hazard lights on straight away. If visibility is poor, use side lights too. Do not stand in front of the vehicle.
2. Move Left If Safe
If the vehicle still moves, aim for a lay-by, petrol station, service area, slip road or safe stopping point away from live traffic.
3. Leave the Vehicle Safely
Only exit when safe. Keep passengers away from traffic and stand behind a barrier if there is one.
4. Confirm Direction
Tell us whether you are heading towards London, Chelmsford, Colchester, Ipswich or Lowestoft so the driver approaches correctly.
5. Send Location
Send your details using the online quote form and choose how you would like us to reply.
6. Give Vehicle Details
Tell us make, model, automatic/manual, whether it rolls in neutral, passengers and any damage, wheel issue or steering problem.
