DESCRIPTION:
(from Discovery's press release, October 2010) Philadelphia is the only city in the United States that allows "wreck chasing," a multi-million dollar business in which tow truck drivers compete to claim wrecks and collect cash. Previously announced to premiere on TLC, the all-new, original series is moving to Discovery Channel for its world premiere on Monday, November 1, at 10PM (ET/PT). With more than 200 registered towing companies and as many as 2,000 trucks prowling the streets of the City of Brotherly Love at any given time, tow-trucking in Philly is one of the most competitive and high stakes jobs in America. Patrolling the sometimes dangerous and gritty streets day and night requires discipline, attitude and teamwork. Working hand-in-hand with police and rescue crews, the wreck chasers encounter high speed chases, witness serious accidents and are in constant competition with rivals. With miles of territory and strict boundaries, the business of wreck chasing is anything but ordinary. |
