Rollback trucks are used to tow cars and trucks that are damaged from a wreck and  cannot be towed safely with a truck that only lifts one end of the vehicle. Some cars and trucks would be damaged if the wheels are in contact with the ground during a tow.

A rollback or flatbed truck tows the car by loading it on the deck with all wheels off the ground.  Most rollbacks also have the capability of towing a second vehicle using a wheel lift attachment on the rear of the truck.

Rollback tow trucks are also flatbeds in appearance, yet are fitted with a hydraulic system and winch that allows the bed to “roll back” and tilt at an angle to make it possible to drive or pull a vehicle onto the bed

Flatbed or rollback tow trucks feature a flat-topped empty bed on their rear, designed to carry vehicles on top of it. When these tow trucks need to mount a vehicle on their bed, they employ hydraulics to vertically shift the flatbed up or down.
