I am not going to take the time to dissect this entire post, but in a nutshell, it is complete bull****. As long as a public citizen places proper signage warning of a possible tow or boot, and the towing company notifies the police within 30 minutes of the tow and keep appropriate records and safeguards the vehicle there is no problem. Matter of fact, in some jurisdictions, it is a misdemeanor for the person leaving the car so situated on private property after being warned. Further matter of fact, many states and or municipalities (especially resort communities) do not place an upper limit on what can be charged to redeem, so they can charge whatever they want. This has been challenged specifically, in the South Carolina Supreme Court. Felony my ass--and why would you bring up the words "civil matter" and "felony" in the same sentence? It is a misdemeanor for the owners of the property to tow a vehicle if the proper signage is not in place. Conspirators, blah, blah, blah I'd like to watch the reaction to sending a letter with the above contained as well--but would be scared I would commit a tort when the owners or powers that be choked to death from laughing. Don't park where my customers are supposed to park and you won't get towed. Don't like it--challenge the ordinance (there is one you know). And don't take legal advice off the internet (including mine). |

Please don't consider this a critique on your prior advice, but truer words are seldom spoken.

Not taken as such--hence the caveat

I know this is an old thread but I had to comment. Being from Chicago I am aware of the law that allows private (politically connected) companies to install boots on cars. I have a mailbox in a strip mall that "installs" boots. The funny thing is that the "installer" sits in his truck all day long....parked illegally in an unpaid meter space. The irony is that he is taking up a spot that a driver could use if it weren't for the fact that he was using that space to spy.

This actually happened here. These guys had no towing/booting license, no business license, nothing. Just some boots!
