That is a risk.
On our trip I broke the top bolt that holds the rear end pumpkin in place. Found a place in the phone book that worked on exotic cars and drove it there. Showed them what was wrong and an hour later we were on the road again.
I think what you will find is if you need a tow, the driver will be able to recommend a place for you to go.
Happened to me once on a Sunday. The driver called the owner of the place and he came down and opened up so we could get back on the road. Seems like a lot of people will bend over backwards to help you out when you are in a Cobra.
