Ferrari Ends Up on Alpha Auto Towing’s Flatbed in Middletown, CT
It was a clear, sunny afternoon when the roar of a red Ferrari could be heard echoing through the scenic roads of Route 66, heading toward Middletown, CT. Open 24 Hours a Day for Towing Sports Cars. This driver, a car enthusiast from Old Saybrook, was enjoying a weekend cruise along the Connecticut River, passing through Portland and nearing the Arrigoni Bridge. That’s when things took a sudden turn.
While accelerating up the incline near the eastbound side of the bridge, the driver noticed a loud grinding noise beneath the car. Within moments, the Ferrari lost power and rolled to a stop on the shoulder just before entering Middletown. What seemed like a thrilling drive had now turned into a stressful situation.
Realizing the vehicle couldn’t be moved safely, the driver called Alpha Auto Towing at 860-885-4611, known across Middlesex County for their fast and professional service. Within 5 minutes, a purple and pink light-duty flatbed rolled up with flashing amber lights. The operator who is one of Alpha’s most experienced recovery experts assessed the situation quickly.
With traffic building on Route 66 and limited shoulder space, the tow operator put safety first by setting out cones and coordinating with Middletown PD for temporary traffic control. Carefully, he used soft straps to secure the Ferrari’s low-profile tires to his hydraulic flatbed ensuring zero contact with the car’s undercarriage. Pink recovery straps were selected specifically for added visibility and secure handling.
Once the Ferrari was safely winched up, it was transported just across the river to a performance shop on South Main Street in Middletown for diagnostics and repair. Thanks to Alpha Auto Towing’s quick response and expert handling, a potential disaster was turned into a smooth roadside rescue.
So next time your prized car gives out, whether on Route 9, Route 66, or anywhere in Middlesex County remember that Alpha Auto Towing is on call 24 hours a day to deliver care, safety, and peace of mind.
