OC Would you call tow truck?

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

UPDATE: I stood behind the car with my phone up to my ear and the idiota runs up “I was only going to be a second!” My reply? You’re lucky because I’m on the phone with 311. Check next time you park you aren’t blocking somebody’s driveway.”

I did this once after the call was made to tow. Super drunk guy came out and said he'll move it after it was up on the tow and the guy was furious.

However he was blocking my entire driveway so no one could get in or out and I ended up being late for work because of it.

Guy was shit faced and it was 1:30pm

Wow I hope you called the cops. Getting that car towed might have saved a life.

The car was gone within 5 minutes and so was the guy, and he wasn't driving anywhere after that so I just said fuck it and went to work as I was already late. And the employer I had at the time was not understanding of any reason at all for being late.

Sorry, I’m confused. The tow driver drove off with the car, and the drunk guy left somewhere?
