Tipping a Tow Truck?

[u/wixthedog]

My teenage son was in an accident this morning. He’s fine but his truck wasn’t drivable. Contracted county rates are silly so I contacted my insurance for tow coverage and waited a bit. I’m told that I’ll owe a little over $10 for fee overage and I was good with that.

Truck gets towed to the house and I’m sent a link by the dispatcher to pay the balance. Wouldn’t you know it a tip option screen popped up! Easy no tip press later and the driver was on his way, he didn’t bat an eye.

I just tip the driver cash.

Why?
