Incorrect interpretation of the If the sign says fine then the remedy is a citation. If the sign says “Towing Enforced” and lists the towing company and phone number. In my case, I had the handicap placard but it apparently fell down when they towed the car. They claimed it was not properly displayed. I could see the sticker on the ledge of my dash. I wrote to the property management afterwards and put them on notice that they were authorizing towing. In one case, the sign was turned around and a patron had their Mercedes towed. This is a strip mall with a health club. I watched as one ladies van who was visibly disabled with children had her van towed. She was taking her kids into the Laser tag game place and forgot to display her sticker. The tow truck was hiding and just ambushing patrons. If you are illegally parked, they are supposed to give you a sticker warning and or a citation. I have only seen proper signs at casinos where they plainly state handicap and all others towed. If it says fine they are limited to fines. Towing at HOAs is another example of towing abuse. Recently a bunch of cars were towed from parking lots at closed businesses near the Chivalry event at Sunset Park. Previously a towing dragnet caused cars to be towed from downtown where there were empty lots with no signs. I would be curious to hear about the experience of others. In one case, my car got damaged and returned to be when it was towed at a law office where I was parked for business. Fortunately, the suspension damage was covered under my new car warranty.

Everywhere and anywhere there is parking. If there is one obscure sign regarding towing apparently they are authorized to tow. I would venture to guess that at least half of all tows are illegal. Most people just give up.
I don’t.
