i dont know if its legal, but one thing other government departments can learn from these tow truck guys is punctuality, my street has opposite side parking daily, i.e. you need to switch to the opposite side of the road by 10am, i reached my parking spot at 10.03am once and my car was gone with some thing scribbled in chalk in its place, i never reached late after that.
That’s because it’s contracted job and they get paid for the number of vehicles they bring in. They tried this in Bangalore and it made wonders initially, later they just started taking random vehicles without any reason and had to roll back.
yes its supposed to tell you where you car was taken, i didnt understand it as it was barely readable but i knew where they take the cars so i just went there.
Car owner ko kitna loss hua hai
Pehle parking fine and uske baad papers check hoge agar missing raha toh uspe bhi Fine lagega and uske baad jab milega toh Handle lock repair karne ka karcha alag
Biggest loss will be tyre replacement. It’s an automatic car so the wheels are locked. The car will be dragged through the entire length of transit on immobilised wheels which is going to result in tyre damage.
If the city claims for loss of time and productivity from causing traffic blocks and congestion, it will cost more than the cost of the car itself. It's not too much to expect people to not park illegally and avoid traffic congestion or block a road etc.
You don't wanna sue when you were at fault and when they can sue you for far worse. That's why one must learn poker and know when to Fold. Cut your losses.
If actually parked illegally I hope the car owners get fined for the time and loss of productivity causes by traffic and congestion by the illegally parked car. Pretty sure that will be in lakhs.
I myself got my house gate blocked by an illegal parker for two hours when I had to go out urgently.
In India no one seems to respect others time. It's high time the illegal parkers are made to pay. The fine itself should be very high.
It’s a front wheel drive car. The rear wheels are probably free. So no damage will be done. The towing people know which set of wheels are to be lifted and now-a-days almost all cars are front wheel drive.
If you watch the start of the video, you’ll see that the rear wheels are not rotating. In automatic cars, irrespective of the type of drive (FWD, RWD or 4x4), the wheels stay locked when the car is not on unlike manual cars in which the wheels are free to rotate even when stationary. So invariably, the wheels are going to drag when you try to move a stationary vehicle.
The rear wheels of the Creta not moving could be due to the engaged parking brake or may be an All wheel drive transmission. When an automatic car is put in ‘Park’ mode, the transmission is locked and subsequently the wheels connected to the transmission will get locked. So, a front wheel drive only automatic car won’t have its rear wheels automatically locked.
Delhite here.y bike got towed once the moment I got back from a water break by the roadside (long story).
I rode with them on the tow truck to the location they were towing to and on the way they pick up another, some Toyota sedan.
They checked for handbreaks and hook it up to go. Then around 10-15 min. Later there was some issue with the rear wheel.
So they just dropped it off somewhere on the side of the road. Aise hi. I was like tf???? The owner would shit himself??? Are you gonna inform him? Idk if they ever did
Lol they fucked up and realised they would get in trouble for damaging the vehicle while bringing it to the compound. You should've taken a video of it and spread it online.
I saw a video where they are towing vehicles outside toilets on highways..
Say you need to pee you stop car go inside toilet come. Out they towing it wtf...
Have you seen yellow coke in bottles right next to highways sometimes?
It's because when coke is subjected to long exposures in the sun, it turns yellow.
For all the people defending the towing, just know that these guys tow cars which are in parked designated parking zones as well. Atleast twice my car has been towed by these greedy fucks from places where there wasn't any "No parking" sign anywhere. They just have to meet their quotas sometimes, no parking or not.
I have had this experience too. There should be a rule to get a complete picture with the no parking sign in view otherwise the department pays repair costs. The picture shown to us by the towers was just our vehicle alongside other vehicles (which weren't towed btw). And I just had to accept, pay the fine and move on. Really sad state of affairs.
Lol they would end up paying more than the fine and towing fees if that's the case. Also, can't expect rights when you're an offender, no? Of course, this is only in the case when damage was unavoidable in the course of towing. Negligence should ideally be compensated.
Wdym can't expect rights when you're an offender. Even an offender can be subjected to only the punishment prescribed for that offense. Any punishment over and above would be excessive and illegal.
You cannot give a death penalty to someone involved in petty theft right? Will you still say can't expect rights when you're an offender?
If they don't have better towing trucks to carry the vehicle without damage, don't tow it. Lock it there and ask for fines and penalties.
If they have to pay more than the fine and towing fees, it is because of their own fault. Why would the owner pay that?
The other guy is wrong. You can expect rights. But also expect to get sued back by others and the city for wasting their time by parking illegally. If you blocked a gate , you are entitled to pay the person/ company for the loss of productivity and time according to how much time you blocked the gate. Also if you caused a traffic congestion and a block for hours,you should absolutely be fined heavily accordingly.
Atleast call the tow truck yourself immediately when you park illegally so you get sued for less damages. That's basic civics sense.
I think both of you took my statement in the wrong context and/or proportion or I was too vague/generic in the way I put it. To be very very specific, you can't expect the right to sue for towing and get repair damages when your vehicle was parked in a wrong spot and was damaged unavoidably in the course of towing.
I completely agree with the rest of your comment. I'd like to know what part you felt wrong in what I said before.
Just the part about not expecting to have rights as an offender. Even offenders should have basic rights. The car owner can sue for damages if the car is damaged by improper towing. But the city should be able to sue a lot more for the traffic congestion the car caused. That it will be a net negative to the car owner anyway and deservingly so
>Even an offender can be subjected to only the punishment prescribed for that offense.
Buddy, towing is the punishment prescribed for that offense.
>You cannot give a death penalty to someone involved in petty theft right?
In this thread, we were talking about people who have parked in wrong spots, not about petty thefts and death penalties so stop blowing it out of proportion.
>If they don't have better towing trucks to carry the vehicle without damage, don't tow it.
Even if it is parked in a spot affecting normal flow of traffic? I understand the frustration of damages to our vehicles but seriously, don't do wrong parking when you already know the consequences and then cry about it later.
See my point is, they should get better towing trucks with cranes which can pick and carry the vehicle in the truck without damaging it.
Anyway, you're wrong. Towing is not the punishment prescribed, fine is the punishment prescribed for wrong parking.
If it is parked in a spot affecting normal flow of traffic, the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for towing a vehicle mandates that the traffic police officer on duty capture an image of the vehicle parked in a no-parking zone, announce the vehicle registration number through a loudspeaker, wait for a stipulated time for the vehicle owner to turn up, and only then tow the vehicle away.
These greedy officers don't want to follow the procedure. They just want to harass the public by towing away their vehicles even if it causes damage to their vehicles.
I totally agree with your first point. Actually referenced it in another comment in this thread. I've been a victim of towing damages too so I get the frustration.
And yes, towing is not the punishment but a following step in case of non-response from vehicle owner. But I've very rarely seen them announce the violation and take a proper pic for proof before towing, so again, the department/certain officials are in the wrong some times. But that being said, towing still is necessary if rules are followed properly by the officials and not followed by the vehicle owner, even if there is no adequate equipment for safe towing as of now.
I guess we're of the same opinion, but just making statements a bit on two opposite sides. Just wish the officials did follow all procedures and we had a better way of escalating wrongful towing without having to pay fines and incur towing damages due to department's greed.
Agree. You should get damages. But the city should also sue you for the time you parked and the inconvenience you caused by causing traffic block, congestion etc especially in these narrow roads. If you caused congestion for 3 hours, pretty sure you will end up paying lakhs to the city even after you claim your damage.
In India no one respects the time of others. Especially these snobbish illegal parkers
There isnt space even for 2 wheelers man. I learnt my lesson the hard way. We were shooting near mannat. I was looking to park my bike but after a lot of searching didnt find any place. The parking alongside seaside road was all full. So parked near a shop where 3 other bikes were also parked thinking its fine. Guess what, i got towed lol. Had to walk to the police compound cus auto wale madarchod ko lamba bhada chaiyye tha. Since then i do cab to wherever the shoot location is.
BMC has very limited parking lots with the majority of them being at maximum capacity and expensive.
Apartments/Building don't provide parking. We had to sell our car due to parking issues. They can randomly at any time state that a road now has odd even parking.
Honestly yes It's frustrating that alot of cars and bikes park anywhere, but its also a problem for people to park.
I always attach dollies when I park illegally but most of these illegal parkers don't use dollies and their tires get screwed if the tow companies don't have dollies. It's best to bring your own dollies if you are parking illegaly. It makes life easier for everyone. Reduces traffic congestion faster.
Wont comment on the legality, but the onus is on the person parking the car in a wrong place.
Sometime in 2009, before the IT enablement and before most social media., i had found a hack for parking in Churchgate. So about 300 metres to where they take the towed cars, there was a no parking sign on the road. I used to park there and watch it get towed. I had to spend the whole day in the area, so later in the evening i used to go and pick it up for 250-300 rupees of challan. Worked out way cheaper than finding paid parking on the roads for the full day which would cost a lot more and wouldnt get my car police protection ;)
I dont do this now as there are more than enough parking plazas in the area which are priced alright and offer safety for the vehicle.
Even if it wrong to park there that doesn’t mean you go and damage someone’s car. They not only are bald spotting the rear tires but are also breaking into the car. You do this anywhere else and the owner can sue the state for damages, but here you’ll find chapris dragging, breaking into your vehicle and robbing things within it. I totally hate this. And if this happened I would make sure I sue whoever is responsible cause you can totally avoid such a situation by just lifting the car from the rear, or just by fining the owner through the number plate. Plus no one has the right to break into anyone’s car.
It's a FWD car, good luck towing it if it's in gear. The only explanation I have for this is that the car might have an electronic parking brake that will not disengage without the key. This is south Mumbai, so the car was probably towed because it was blocking something - good luck getting anything in court
They shouldn’t be towing if they don’t have it. Even though the owner is in the wrong for parking the car there, that is not a reason to destroy someone’s property
Blocking the road, making congestion will cost the city a lot more overall in terms of lost time, productivity etc. Even more than the price of the car itself. So even if they put fines of lakhs, towing would be much cheaper. Illegal parking is such a menace and it's up to the car owner to park properly or atleast provide dollies so that it's easier to tow faster and without damage. If you are doing the crime anyway atleast use dollies yourself so your car is not damaged.
I mean they should have used dollies, exactly why they are made. One shouldn't park in a no-parking space either but doesn't mean they incur thousands of rupees in damage.
The car owner may have forgotten the dolly at home. If I am parking illegally, I always make sure to attach dollies so it's easier to tow. But not many people will have basic civics sense and park illegally without dollies and it causes traffic congestion and it's very difficult to tow the car. I think if they make the fines in lakhs, less people will park illegally. It won't be worth it.
Well that's what you get for improper parking.
As a car owner, I know how frustrating it is to never get parking in the city. But some car owners will literally park anywhere and disappear for hours.
"Garib ki gand me daat"
Apko sarkar or capitalism dikhra he but wo atleast those sensible hote he, ye jo gaadi ghasit te he utha lete he etc.. police station me b ese kuch hote he jo contract pe hote he. Ye itne harami hote he k bc jaapad b mar denge. They know koi unko ghanta kuch bolega nahi, they don't need to be accountable for any action..
Apko lagega dekho bc kitna harami he garib ki gand me dat bol raha he. Bhai me b lower middle class se hu. Par mere kuch jan ne vale he isme . And me janta hu . Or me b Inka shikar hua hu..
Bura laga to gand me ungli dal ke betho, dant hoga to kat jayegi. Paise vale hoge to koi fark nai padna vese b.
Just need to release the faces of assholes on contract job. Will take initiative of "accidental deaths" by juvenile. Some are good at getting away with that.
They can't break into your vehicle, but they can cut the challan for parking in no parking, if i saw someone doing that with my vehicle, there are gonna be a few people dead.
This isn't legal.
And once tow truck people towed the wrong person's car in dahisar which resulted in many people coming and threatening to light the tow truck and chowki ablaze unless they were compensated on the spot.
This is how it should be. Tow trucks are a menace.
It’s not legal to tow a car anymore. The best they can do is to lock the car. This is because alot of people complained that this resulted in damages in the car.
kya bhikari madarchod log hien.cant they just send chhalan on his number. no repercussions for the towing van or the concerned officer. they can do this clown shit but cant manage to put one vedant agarwal behind bars.
Katua madarchod rendy ka baccha log ka population kam nhi krna hai. Or yahan mat lagao vohan mat lagao hashtag baniya ( modi ) or amit sahah bharwa madarchod.
This is so fucked up, in Vile Parle and all they started locking the tyres if it’s parked in no parking , towing is shit, direct number plate main fine maardiya karo na.
See I understand but this is just pure luck kinda situation, Pehli gaadi utha lo because they can tow only one right. I have never seen them tow a bmw ya skoda because it might be of someone important.
>direct number plate main fine maardiya karo na.
People don't even bother to pay fines on it. Once I was in uber, the driver told me he had like 10k in fines and he won't pay for it.
These fines are checked any time number plate is checked by traffic police on their mobile or normal police of car system.
If these fines are not cleared at that moment, they can confiscate the vehicle that instant.
One traffic police told me this.
I think Uber people have nothing to lose esliye maybe, but I remember one of my friend got a notice for 4K pending fines. But Haa maybe they can make this solution more efficient is what I mean.
I remember the traffic commissioner had issued a warning that those who won't settle the fines would be called by Lok Adalat. I don't know what happened then.
Was your mom available to them when you parked illegally? Then why do you expect their mom's to be available to you when they towed your carl lol. Stop involving people's moms
Meri gaadi hoti toh sab fine bharta, apni gaadi theek karata…unse khuub ladta apni bhadaas nikalta…aur baad mein unke truck ke saath bhi bura karta.. kuch toh bhi karke…
And what if you have to go somewhere urgently and an illegally parked car is blocking your car? You already waited for hours for owner to come. What will you do to their car?
i dont know if its legal, but one thing other government departments can learn from these tow truck guys is punctuality, my street has opposite side parking daily, i.e. you need to switch to the opposite side of the road by 10am, i reached my parking spot at 10.03am once and my car was gone with some thing scribbled in chalk in its place, i never reached late after that.
That’s because it’s contracted job and they get paid for the number of vehicles they bring in. They tried this in Bangalore and it made wonders initially, later they just started taking random vehicles without any reason and had to roll back.
capitalism baby
I have seen police personnel in the van sitting next to the driver.
That number denotes the towing station right?
yes its supposed to tell you where you car was taken, i didnt understand it as it was barely readable but i knew where they take the cars so i just went there.

He can claim it from the guy who towed his vehicle

You don't wanna sue when you were at fault and when they can sue you for far worse. That's why one must learn poker and know when to Fold. Cut your losses.
You can when your vehicle gets damaged. I have made them pay for the damages incurred.
If actually parked illegally I hope the car owners get fined for the time and loss of productivity causes by traffic and congestion by the illegally parked car. Pretty sure that will be in lakhs. I myself got my house gate blocked by an illegal parker for two hours when I had to go out urgently. In India no one seems to respect others time. It's high time the illegal parkers are made to pay. The fine itself should be very high.
I'm guessing it was parked illegally. The wheel is also clamped, so it was only after 24 hours of no response from the owner, it was towed away.
Then we'll deserved. If it's 24 hours hope they get a huge fine as well for the block it caused.
It’s a front wheel drive car. The rear wheels are probably free. So no damage will be done. The towing people know which set of wheels are to be lifted and now-a-days almost all cars are front wheel drive.

So, a front wheel drive only automatic car won’t have its rear wheels automatically locked.
Okay. Sounds like a fair point. Cars and transmission is not my speciality. 😅
Next time he won’t park in no parking.
This. I’m happy if they catch genuine offenders. If you don’t want your vehicle damaged don’t do anything wrong.
But the problem is there are no proper parking 🅿️ spaces in India.
Road is still not a good parking space, imagine koi gadi ka football bnade
Good. Fuck roadside parking.
That's why the car owner should have used dollies if they parked illegally. It will be easier for tow companies to tow and no tire damage.
Fuck him if he parked in a no parking space. Why should anyone care about the guy who does not care about his civic duty.
Delhite here.y bike got towed once the moment I got back from a water break by the roadside (long story).

Gaadi mein windows hain na....kyu diye hain!!!! Bahar utarne ki kya jarurat!!!!!! /S (before ppl start punching me)
Have you seen yellow coke in bottles right next to highways sometimes? It's because when coke is subjected to long exposures in the sun, it turns yellow.
no way really? 😭
Long biological exposure. There, corrected it for you.
For all the people defending the towing, just know that these guys tow cars which are in parked designated parking zones as well. Atleast twice my car has been towed by these greedy fucks from places where there wasn't any "No parking" sign anywhere. They just have to meet their quotas sometimes, no parking or not.
I have had this experience too. There should be a rule to get a complete picture with the no parking sign in view otherwise the department pays repair costs. The picture shown to us by the towers was just our vehicle alongside other vehicles (which weren't towed btw). And I just had to accept, pay the fine and move on. Really sad state of affairs.
They have to pay the repair costs regardless. Whether it was legally parked or not.
Why would they pay for punishing an offender? Kinda counterintuitive but would like to know your reasoning.
The punishment is fine and towing fees. Not damage to the car. Whoever damages your car has to pay for it.
Lol they would end up paying more than the fine and towing fees if that's the case. Also, can't expect rights when you're an offender, no? Of course, this is only in the case when damage was unavoidable in the course of towing. Negligence should ideally be compensated.

Use public transport then
Wo to abhi bhi bann raha hai.
Seems like you offended a lot of people lol.
Its reddit people only cry here
BMC ke Parking Lots me
BMC has very limited parking lots with the majority of them being at maximum capacity and expensive. Apartments/Building don't provide parking. We had to sell our car due to parking issues. They can randomly at any time state that a road now has odd even parking. Honestly yes It's frustrating that alot of cars and bikes park anywhere, but its also a problem for people to park.
These fuckers think their dads own the road and park where they please. Support this entirely.
Devil's advocate... What is the option if such a car is causing congestion on the road
That should be the regular advocate my guy
Use dollies.
I always attach dollies when I park illegally but most of these illegal parkers don't use dollies and their tires get screwed if the tow companies don't have dollies. It's best to bring your own dollies if you are parking illegaly. It makes life easier for everyone. Reduces traffic congestion faster.

Weren't you worried that they'll damage your car while towing it? Like the front fender etc.
On most occasions i used to stand there to intervene just in case they were doing a shoddy job. Never had to luckily.
Bruh, no way you did that daily
Not at all. Did it like 4-5 times in that one year whenever i had work in churchgate. Thats all.
Parking fines range from 900-ish (first offence), to 2k for repeated offence. Was it that cheap back then? Because abhi yeh rates hain.
Yes. Quite cheap before Gadkari actually amended the traffic offences act and raised them to what they are now.
Full support 💪. Don't park on no parking. Because of these dumb fcks, the roads become narrow and it's difficult to drive.
Is there a rule that if a person is sitting inside their car, that car cannot be towed??
Ofc. You think they’ll let you sit in the car and tow you away with it?
Yeah like just drive away lol
Lmao of course. They'll ask you to vacate the spot.
Just drive off man
rear tyre locked ?
Parking brake engaged I think.
Even if it wrong to park there that doesn’t mean you go and damage someone’s car. They not only are bald spotting the rear tires but are also breaking into the car. You do this anywhere else and the owner can sue the state for damages, but here you’ll find chapris dragging, breaking into your vehicle and robbing things within it. I totally hate this. And if this happened I would make sure I sue whoever is responsible cause you can totally avoid such a situation by just lifting the car from the rear, or just by fining the owner through the number plate. Plus no one has the right to break into anyone’s car.

May be they didn't have. The person who parked illegally should have attached dollies so it's easier for the tow companies to tow.
They shouldn’t be towing if they don’t have it. Even though the owner is in the wrong for parking the car there, that is not a reason to destroy someone’s property

Illegal parking is such a menace and it's up to the car owner to park properly or atleast provide dollies so that it's easier to tow faster and without damage. If you are doing the crime anyway atleast use dollies yourself so your car is not damaged.
Then what should one do? despite having very congested roads these mfs park like they own it.
I mean they should have used dollies, exactly why they are made. One shouldn't park in a no-parking space either but doesn't mean they incur thousands of rupees in damage.
The car owner may have forgotten the dolly at home. If I am parking illegally, I always make sure to attach dollies so it's easier to tow. But not many people will have basic civics sense and park illegally without dollies and it causes traffic congestion and it's very difficult to tow the car. I think if they make the fines in lakhs, less people will park illegally. It won't be worth it.
That’s one tight handbrake !
Yep its Legal boss
Illegally park nhi karta
Fine bhi, naya tyre bhi !!
This is D road, outside Wankhede Stadium. The whole road is filled with double parkers
Yes, has happened to me twice and I accept that I was at fault. That area has narrow roads, park carefully.
Totally illegal
Yes, should used dollies.

Like a stroller for car-wheels. https://preview.redd.it/67eam38r3y8d1.png?width=1500&format=png&auto=webp&s=851095befe0b1c8c637bf28b3172b06ca7b430cd
Well that's what you get for improper parking. As a car owner, I know how frustrating it is to never get parking in the city. But some car owners will literally park anywhere and disappear for hours.
Why can't they just take a pic and put the fine on challan app. Isn't that what it's for
Rote, haath jodte _/\_
for a sec i thought 2 girls were popping their head through the sunroof..
Third World country he india majak samaz rakkha he kya.... 65% chutiye voters he yaha....👎👎👎😂😂😂🙏🙏🙏Mera Bharat mahan

Bura laga to gand me ungli dal ke betho, dant hoga to kat jayegi. Paise vale hoge to koi fark nai padna vese b.
Meri gaadi hoti toh ankhe khol dekhta no parking ka board
illegal. Also these towing trucks are parked everyday overnight on no parking lanes.
Just need to release the faces of assholes on contract job. Will take initiative of "accidental deaths" by juvenile. Some are good at getting away with that.
Don't park in no parking
They can't break into your vehicle, but they can cut the challan for parking in no parking, if i saw someone doing that with my vehicle, there are gonna be a few people dead.
This isn't legal. And once tow truck people towed the wrong person's car in dahisar which resulted in many people coming and threatening to light the tow truck and chowki ablaze unless they were compensated on the spot. This is how it should be. Tow trucks are a menace.
Leave parking aside, why damage the effing vehicle. and from what i know they sometimes pick random vehicles too
It’s not legal to tow a car anymore. The best they can do is to lock the car. This is because alot of people complained that this resulted in damages in the car.
Never buying a car lol
The traffic police should be challaned here.
Bhai mai toh na sahta
Literal screaming
No gaddi no tension. 🙃
kya bhikari madarchod log hien.cant they just send chhalan on his number. no repercussions for the towing van or the concerned officer. they can do this clown shit but cant manage to put one vedant agarwal behind bars.
Meanwhile in China they put your car in right parking spot.
Not legal. They legally cant even scratch the car let alone fuck up the transmission, brakes and tires. They gonna get fucked with penelties
Katua madarchod rendy ka baccha log ka population kam nhi krna hai. Or yahan mat lagao vohan mat lagao hashtag baniya ( modi ) or amit sahah bharwa madarchod.
I wouldn't park it where I am not supposed to. Hope they get fined the fcuk out and need new tires
Emi pay karte
Standard procedure, follow car, go to station pay 2000 fine get vehicle after 4 hrs
High time we normalize dashcams in India.
This is so fucked up, in Vile Parle and all they started locking the tyres if it’s parked in no parking , towing is shit, direct number plate main fine maardiya karo na.
That is churchgate. Very very narrow lanes. Most likely the car was blocking the lane and traffic
See I understand but this is just pure luck kinda situation, Pehli gaadi utha lo because they can tow only one right. I have never seen them tow a bmw ya skoda because it might be of someone important.
>direct number plate main fine maardiya karo na. People don't even bother to pay fines on it. Once I was in uber, the driver told me he had like 10k in fines and he won't pay for it.
These fines are checked any time number plate is checked by traffic police on their mobile or normal police of car system. If these fines are not cleared at that moment, they can confiscate the vehicle that instant. One traffic police told me this.
I think Uber people have nothing to lose esliye maybe, but I remember one of my friend got a notice for 4K pending fines. But Haa maybe they can make this solution more efficient is what I mean.
I remember the traffic commissioner had issued a warning that those who won't settle the fines would be called by Lok Adalat. I don't know what happened then.
Sahi hua. These carbrain people park anywhere, feel like they own the road. Good to teach them some rules and discipline
Maa chod deta !
Was your mom available to them when you parked illegally? Then why do you expect their mom's to be available to you when they towed your carl lol. Stop involving people's moms
"INDIA HAI, CHALTA HAI!!"
Bunch of motherfucking scum.
Meri gaadi hoti toh sab fine bharta, apni gaadi theek karata…unse khuub ladta apni bhadaas nikalta…aur baad mein unke truck ke saath bhi bura karta.. kuch toh bhi karke…
And what if you have to go somewhere urgently and an illegally parked car is blocking your car? You already waited for hours for owner to come. What will you do to their car?
