Frequently asked questions in Ähtäri
Switch on hazard lights, move the vehicle as far as possible into the road shoulder and report the road number and direction of travel. Tell the nearest junction or town, such as Ähtäri’s town centre, Inha or Myllymäki, and send an exact location link. Call emergency number 112 if the vehicle is in immediate danger on the traffic lane. If it is safe, move the vehicle out of the traffic lane.
Tell the name of the location, parking area, nearest entry and possible landmark number or sign. Mention if the vehicle is in a narrow space, in the parking area of a accommodation or behind a closed barrier. Agree on a safe meeting point with the area’s staff during busy times.
Report Myllymäki, the direction of travel, nearest intersection or station and exact location link. Highway 18 continues as a long, sparsely populated road section towards Multia, so kilometre markers or the last sign passed can also help. State whether the vehicle is safely on the road shoulder or on a narrow road section.
Tell which of the three level crossings or station areas you are referring to and on which side of the track the vehicle is located. Report the street address, parking area and nearest allowed crossing and share a location link. Do not leave the vehicle at a level crossing or on the railway safety area.
Often it is possible, if the road connection condition is known before departure. Report the road width, load capacity, ploughing status, barriers and turning area and whether the vehicle is in a ditch or on soft ground. A location link and a photo of the last road section help assess what equipment is needed for the location.
General questions about towing and roadside assistance
Your insurer may arrange assistance through its own partner network. In some situations, another available towing company may be closer. The HinausSuomi map lets you choose a suitable provider and ask the company directly about availability.
The HinausSuomi map shows towing companies serving the area. You can contact the nearest company, a provider you know or the towing chain you prefer. The choice is yours.
It often will if your policy includes towing or roadside assistance cover for the incident. Coverage always depends on the policy, the cause of the incident and its terms. Check your insurer’s online service or ask the towing company to help verify the cover.
Roadside assistance may help with a flat battery, a flat tyre, locked doors or an empty fuel tank. If the vehicle cannot be repaired safely at the scene, it will be towed to a suitable repair shop.
The vehicle is usually taken to a nearby suitable repair shop, a repair shop chosen by the customer or another agreed destination. If insurance covers the tow, the destination may need to be justified by the nature of the fault. The towing company can help find a suitable repair shop.
