Breaking down in McKinney

McKinney is the Collin County seat, about 30 miles north of Dallas, and it sits on Central Expressway (US 75). US 380 crosses the city, and the Sam Rayburn Tollway ends at US 75 near the spot McKinney calls its Gateway. Away from the highways, drivers park around the historic square downtown and at park and trailhead lots such as Erwin Park and Towne Lake Park.

What a McKinney driver may need: a jump start or new battery in a shopping, college, hospital, park or trailhead lot, a lockout near the square, or a spare put on or enough gas to reach a station along US 75 or the Sam Rayburn Tollway.

Roads where we help McKinney drivers

US 75 (Central Expressway) The freeway McKinney sits on. It meets the Sam Rayburn Tollway and SH 121 at what McKinney calls its Gateway, and Laud Howell Parkway is another of its McKinney intersections. Tell the dispatcher whether you're northbound or southbound and which exit or cross street you just went by.
Sam Rayburn Tollway (SH 121) A cashless NTTA toll road that ends at US 75 in Collin County, at McKinney's Gateway. Say which direction you were heading and the last exit you passed.
US 380 Crosses McKinney, and the city's own transportation page says traffic on US 380 between Coit Road and FM 1827 exceeds what the road can carry. If you stop along it, pull well off into a lot and give the nearest cross street or business sign.

Local tips for McKinney drivers

Street parking around the square

On a busy day around the square, or during the Saturday morning farmers market at Chestnut Square, you may end up parked on a side street. If the car won't start or the keys are locked inside, give the dispatcher the street, the nearest corner of the square and your car's color.

Getting off the Sam Rayburn Tollway

A car that still drives is better off taking the next exit from the Sam Rayburn Tollway than stopping on the main lanes. Pull into a lot off the cross street at that exit, where the technician has room to work, and tell the dispatcher which exit you took.

Park and trailhead lots

At Erwin Park, the Heard sanctuary, Towne Lake Park or Bonnie Wenk Park, a car can sit for hours while you're out on the trails. Note the lot or trailhead before you head out, so you can give it to the dispatcher if the car won't start. You can call dispatch any time for an update.

Roadside help in McKinney: common questions

Does Pit Stop serve McKinney, TX?

Yes. Pit Stop serves McKinney, including ZIP codes 75069, 75070, 75071 and 75072. Because McKinney is about 30 miles north of Dallas, the dispatcher confirms on the call whether a technician can reach your spot and when. Call (214) 367-5302, day or night, from anywhere in McKinney.

How long does it take a technician to reach McKinney?

There's no set arrival window for McKinney. The drive depends on US 75 traffic and on which part of the city you're in, from the Sam Rayburn Tollway to Erwin Park. Your exit or street is enough for a realistic ETA, and you hear the cost on the same call to (214) 367-5302, before anyone is sent.

Can you help me on US 75 or the Sam Rayburn Tollway in McKinney?

Yes, as long as you're out of danger first. An injury, or a car stalled in a travel lane, means you dial 911 first. If you can still drive, take the next exit and pull into a parking lot or onto the frontage road. Once you're stopped, call (214) 367-5302. The closest exit, such as Laud Howell Parkway on US 75, tells the dispatcher where to send the technician.

Do you come to downtown McKinney and the city's parks?

Yes. Pit Stop serves lots and street parking across McKinney, from the downtown square to park lots like Towne Lake Park and Bonnie Wenk Park. Tell the dispatcher the business, park or lot and the row or street your car is on, and you hear on the call whether a technician can reach it and when. If you're parked tight between other cars, say so, since a jump start or tire change needs some room beside the car.

While you wait

Get out of traffic. If the car still rolls, ease onto the shoulder, the next exit ramp or a parking lot.
Hazards on. Turn on your flashers. At night, keep your parking lights on too.
Stay clear of the lanes. On a highway, stay buckled in the car or stand well behind the guardrail. Never between the car and traffic.
Keep your phone free. The dispatcher may call back to confirm the spot. Keep the line open and the phone charged.
