Why is motorcycle towing different in the Coastal & Outer Corridor?

What is motorcycle towing like in Ricardo, TX?
Ricardo is six miles south of Kingsville on US-77, commuter country with no local towing when something goes wrong.
Ricardo started as a King Ranch railroad depot in 1908. Robert Kleberg Sr. himself asked the railway to put a stop here, and they named it in Spanish form. That King Ranch heritage is still visible in the fence lines and pasture that flank US-77 on both sides of town. Today Ricardo is a bedroom community for Kingsville, with residents commuting to NAS Kingsville, Texas A&M-Kingsville, and the county's commercial employers. Ricardo ISD runs two campuses and enrolls about 650 kids, roughly 87% Hispanic. For a town that size on a 75 mph highway, Ricardo has no towing of its own. Everything goes to Kingsville. That means a driver with a dead battery on a cold January morning, or someone who blows a tire on the US-77 shoulder at shift-change time, is waiting for a truck to come south from town. This corridor is run regularly, and the operators know the pull-offs and the shoulders where cars tend to end up. The economic profile here matters for what kind of calls come in. More than half the ISD student body is economically disadvantaged, which tracks with the community overall. Older vehicles, higher breakdown frequency, and customers who want the number before anything happens. Ask the dispatcher for the rate on your job, and we'll talk to you in Spanish if that's easier. Most of the time out here, it is.
