Duration: 45 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC ALBALatest broadcast: on BBC ALBA

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.

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 fifteen calls a day, sending them out in blinding blizzards and ice storms in the dead of night.

When Justin Mobley steals a tow from co-worker Sam Jackson, fireworks fly on Donner Pass. Justin continues to cash in and is confronted with what might be the impossible tow. Show less
