Yeah we have 2 white e92 m3s here they obviously park the right way to avoid tow. We have paving co working in lot and cars have to be moved according to schedule, usually 5-10 people forget and thats what happens


And guess who pays all towing expenses.....ALL unit owners

So this is a place you work at, and if someone parks wrong it has to be towed ?

I wish management billed me $2500 last month for illegal washer and dryer that were not even installed. (Can't have those in most condos here in MA)

Phone number is on the side of the truck bed. Would be a good one for CNN to add to their news.

For that kind of towing I'm not even sure why they are using a flatbed. Not like the cars are big or broken...

I did some repo towing when I was in college. Takes less than 3 minutes to get a car hooked up, we did it most times in about 1 minute (But it was repo, quick is good). This is so lazy it makes me wonder why even bother. Just smash the cars out of the spots and save the risk of damage and just do it outright.

Lazy asshole.

That's gotta be doing some damage to those cars.

If you're going to tow them, do it right. No need to do damage to other's property intentionally.

Lazy asshole.
I saw tow truck driver speak with property manager showing him something under the truck, I think his tow arms are broken so he decided to use flatbed. PS when he unloaded cars, almost all of them hit flatbed with exhaust pipes, undercarriage, or rear bumper

This is only 1st week of pavement, 1 more week to go...I wonder how many cars he will damage.

Not sure if it all good, few days ago he dragged new GL500 with front wheels locked

Yeah, you should do the right thing and let those people know what happened and you have photos of it.

A parking mistake doesn't excuse $1,000's in damage.

Looks like he's moving them only a short distance where the truck bed is making contact with the cars is the same place where you would lift with a jack or hydraulic lift. Still could cause undercarriage damage

Wtf are you waiting for OP? Why can't you do the right thing already and let everyone know? Cops, news, owners etc? What's the point of coming here on the forum and not doing the right thing?

Seriously.

U really think cops and news are gonna pick up on this based on my few pictures? Its one thing if the car fell from truck with visible damage, but so far its undercarriage damage if any, and none of it is visible. On top of this we have bunch of elder living here that would probably think that I am an idiot and tow truck driver doing them a favor
