A final report is made on a two-year experiment with a motorist aid telephone system in Michigan. The project was a cooperative effort designed to determine the usefulness of a roadside motorist aid telephone system to stranded motorists on a rural freeway and to observe and record the needs of motorists who stop on the facility. Operational aspects of such a system were reviewed as well as the maintenance activities required. Interest has been expressed by other states and agencies in the stranded motorist problem.
