Ever wondered what happens if your car suddenly breaks down while you’re driving interstate? Here’s a rundown on interstate benefits and how to get assistance from across the border as an NRMA member.
Wherever you are in Australia, roadside assistance is arranged through the same 13 11 11 phone number, which diverts calls to the relevant state-based motoring club. Each affiliate club will gather all the relevant breakdown information and contact the originating club to confirm a valid membership.
The NRMA is affiliated with all six state based Motoring Organisations, including:
Under the reciprocal arrangements, NRMA members have access to affiliated clubs’ standard levels of roadside assistance. These benefits differ from the entitlements NRMA members receive for breakdowns in NSW and ACT.
