Lame.
Yeah between exams right now I have little time to chase a small possibility.
I do actually have 3 people that saw this. But that's doubtful to work.
Wish there was more of a right for me to fight it.
If I had been there when he did this I would of definitely kicked him in the nuts.

Almost happened to me at redneck heaven. Waitress said they were towing cars. I ran out the tow truck driver was going towards my car with that hook.. I set off my panic button.. I had a few and got in his face then the redneck heaven bouncers showed up. He backed away real quick.. manager came out covered my table tab if I came back in and the bouncer told the guy something I didn't hear but he took off real quick.. tow truck drivers make money on every tow... Most of them are just doing it for the cash

Haven't had the Mustang towed but, I do have a funny story on the subject.

About three years ago, a new hire training class began at my job for one of the Collections departments. One of the new hires apparently had a loan that was delinquent on the vehicle she was using to get to work (Ugly ass white Caprice or Crown Victoria with a big pink stripe down the center and ~24inch pic wheels). One day while she was in the training class her lien holder's contract towing company came to pic up the vehicle. He backed into the vehicle, applied the wench and as he went to get back in his truck, he realized that his door was locked so he could not get back in the truck.

Her class lets out and she is panicking of course. She argues with the tow guy, and someone feeds her the same "they can't tow it if you're in it" line and she gets in the car. She also asks a friend of hers to get in it also in case she needs to leave the car so someone can be in the car. I am watching the whole event go down from my seat and the longer it plays out, the funnier it becomes. Anyway, the security at the job can't interfere apparently. No police were ever called. I left work about 20 minutes late so I could try to see what would happen. She was still in the car after I left so I left for home. I asked some people working the late shift what happened and they said that the owner or someone from the tow company came out with a spare key and documentation from the lien holder showing valid cause to take the vehicle, and the police(when they eventually showed up) allowed the tow to leave with the vehicle.

Hahah! Wow crazy story ford play and toretto.
Yeah I don't know about sitting in the car but how would beating the guys ass play out? Lol
I mean this is just dumb what they can do and get away with.
They deserve a good ass kicking for that sort of a thing.
But I know now for the future what to also "not do" like oooo trusting someone with a hook on their truck that I don't even know.
Not going to beat my self up over it or loose sleep. #lessonlearned

Most carry weapons.. because doing what you are doing.. comes with a higher likely hood of catching a beating/knife/bullet
