Towing companies are one of the biggest cons and ripoff business out there... I'm not against companies towing people for being clearly (not slightly) illegally parked but rather for holding your vehicle ransom and outrageous fees they charge, all legalized by the state , very much mob vibes every towing company I ever interacted with..

I put a tow company out of business in a Philadelphia suburb in 2015.

I warned them, they didn’t listen, they paid dearly.
