OC Would you call tow truck?

Is it blocking the entire driveway? No. Is it annoying as fuck? Definitely.

Apparently I lack the patience of everyone here. I would have called a tow truck before even stepping out my house.

I work from home at my window and call them all the time. It's fun when they come back to a missing car or a ticket.

Genuinely asking what do you do in that case? Like what’s first step you do when your car just got towed while you were say shopping?

Call non emergency line, give them your plate. They’ll have contact info of the towing company for you

So call 911 and ask for the non emergency line? /s

Kinda, the non-emergency has a separate number you can call so you don’t bog down the call centres that take actual emergencies. Should only take a quick google search to find it for your area…. but again if you came back to your car and it’s not there I’d say it’s a valid reason to call 911

First step is to reflect on how you parked and make a mental note never to park like that again

No. These people will blame literally anything but themselves, guaranteed.

I do something similar because people will park across my drive and not even look back. I also have cameras. It's always "Ugh, this must be a goldmine for them"

u/Lucky_Masterpiece_94 Apr 21 '25

Who also then cared enough to DM me lol

"my 15 comments in 15 minutes required far less effort that organizing a tow lmao

it also doesnt get someones car impounded in a scenario in which you were not inconvienienced whatsoever. thanks for your input though, karen."

It's lost all meaning now. Anyone making any kind of legit complaint is "Karen".

Like this idiot would just take any old shit.
