Driscoll straddles US-77 at the FM 665 junction, 22 miles from Corpus Christi, with no local tow service in the city.
Driscoll was founded in 1904 on ranchland belonging to Robert Driscoll Jr., whose sister Clara became famous as the Savior of the Alamo and whose family's charitable trust funded the Driscoll Children's Hospital in Corpus Christi. The town sits at the junction of US-77 and FM 665, exactly 22 miles southwest of Corpus Christi, and its entire towing story is that highway. The new US-77 freeway bypass, completed in stages from 2021 to 2023, now routes high-speed Valley-bound traffic just east of downtown, so breakdowns happen on both the old US-77 Business alignment through town and the new freeway mainline. With a poverty rate around 41% and a median household income near $39,000, Driscoll's vehicle fleet skews older and maintenance-deferred. No-starts, dead batteries, and blown tires are everyday events here. The 90% Hispanic population means Spanish is the first language for most drivers who call for help. FM 665 runs north from the US-77 intersection through Petronila toward Corpus Christi, carrying farm trucks and rural commuters on a two-lane road with no shoulder and no help in between. Stranded on US-77 near Driscoll, you're roughly halfway between Corpus and Robstown with no local option.

Can a Tesla be towed in Corpus Christi?

No. Tesla's owner manual states clearly that wheel-lift towing or flat-bed-with-front-or-rear-wheels-down can damage the drive unit motors, even over short distances.
