How do winch-outs work?

When a vehicle slides off the road, we use the wrecker's integrated winch to pull it back onto the pavement. On a soft shoulder that takes 15-30 minutes. A vehicle deep in standing water or hung up on a steep bank takes careful anchor work and rigging - sometimes 1-2 hours. We explain what we see and what we are going to do before starting.
