What to do if your vehicle stops on the A90 in Aberdeen or Aberdeenshire.
Get away from moving traffic if you can.
The A90 carries fast traffic. If the vehicle can reach a safer stopping place without creating more risk, use it. Do not attempt repairs next to a live lane.
Send direction and location.
“A90 near Aberdeen” is not precise enough. Share your phone GPS pin, direction of travel, nearest junction and any visible signs. That helps the recovery vehicle approach from the correct carriageway.
What DSBM needs from you.
- Exact location or both postcodes for planned transport.
- Registration, make and model.
- Whether the vehicle starts, rolls, steers and brakes.
- Any collision damage, locked wheels or very low clearance.
- Photographs where condition or access is unusual.
