Towing and impound context
I-77 and I-85 cross here and both carry heavy long-distance truck traffic, so incidents on them clear slowly and a stranded driver can wait a long time in a live lane. I-485 is the way around a blocked interchange.
Weather that puts cars on a flatbed
Snow totals are small, but ice storms and sleet mixed with rain are a regular winter event and they do the real damage: limbs come down on cars and power lines, and driving conditions deteriorate faster than the forecast suggests.
Charging and electric vehicles
Charging density is highest uptown and along the I-77 corridor and thins out quickly beyond the outer loop. As everywhere, a stopped EV is a flatbed job, and a dead 12-volt battery can immobilise a car whose main pack is full.
