The A74(M) and M74

The A74(M) / M74 is Scotland's main southbound motorway, running from Glasgow through Lockerbie to the English border at Gretna. It's one of Scotland's busiest freight routes and generates a significant number of tyre callouts, especially from HGVs and motorhomes.

If you break down on the A74(M), use a motorway emergency phone or call 999 first if in immediate danger. Then call us on 0141 266 0690. Response from Glasgow to the Lockerbie area is typically 70–85 minutes.

Stranraer and the Cairnryan Ferry

The P&O and Stena Line ferries from Cairnryan (DG9) to Belfast serve thousands of passengers each week. We cover the ferry terminal and Stranraer town, though response times here are 110–130 minutes. If you're heading for an early ferry, we recommend booking the night before to ensure your vehicle is road-ready.

Gretna Green — A Special Location

Gretna Green (DG16) is just over the Scottish border and one of Scotland's most visited tourist destinations. Located right on the A74(M)/M6 junction, response time is approximately 70–80 minutes. Hire car and motorhome callouts are particularly common here.
