Gach geamhradh, air Prìomh-rathad a h-Ochdad ann an California, faisg air Bealach Donner agus baile Truckee, tha trì sgiobaidhean de thobhadairean a' cur am beatha ann an cunnart gus draibhearan ann an èiginn a shàbhaladh agus a thobhadh. Seo fear dhe na rathaidean as cunnartaiche ann an Aimearaga, agus tha am program seo a' leantainn dhraibhearan a dh'fhaodas
faighinn suas ri còig-deug calla san latha. Bidh aca ri a dhol a-mach ann an cabhadh agus ann an stoirmean reòithte, agus còmhla ri sneachd is cabhadh, tha leathadan cas, carbadan ann an craobhan, agus fiù 's naoidhean gu bhith air a bhreith.

Tha cabhadh uabhasach a' fàgail suidheachadh air leth air rathaidean Bealach Donner. Feumaidh Sam, bho 'Nyack Towing' truca draibhear òg, a tha air tuiteam sìos leathad cas agus air bualadh ann an craobh, a shlaodadh air ais chun an rathaid. Tha Becky agus Edgar, bho 'Dependable Tow' a' strì gus làraidh mhòr làn feòir a shlaodadh à dìog. Agus tha Will, bho 'Running Bear' a' sàbhaladh SUV a shlaidhd air deigh dhubh air an I-ochdad, agus a chaidh bun-os-cionn. Chan eil ach glè bheag de chonnadh san tanca aige, agus tha Will ann an cabhag an SUV a chur air a chuibhleachan fhad 's a tha an CHP a' cumail sùil gheur air.

Every treacherous winter on California's US Interstate 80, near Donner Pass and the small town of Truckee, three teams of hardcore tow truck drivers risk their lives rescuing stranded and wrecked motorists littered across one of the most dangerous roads in America. It is all about high risk and high reward, with each driver responding to as many as 15 calls a day, sending them out in blinding blizzards and ice storms in the dead of night.

As the snow comes in hard, tangling and mangling traffic in Donner Pass, Sam from Nyack Towing must winch up a young driver's pickup, which has plunged down a steep incline and slammed into a tree. Becky and Edgar from Dependable Tow struggle to extract a big rig loaded with hay from a ditch far below the highway. Will of Running Bear rescues an SUV which has hit black ice on I-80 and flipped. Nearly out of gas, Will works fast to upright the SUV while the California Highway Patrol watches him like a hawk. Show less
