OK here we go. Here’s a novel;


That’s probably legitimate reason for impound and it’s pretty amazing anyone nowadays it doesn’t have an alarm with programming that goes off after three minutes. And one of the reasons it could be a little higher is under the business and professional code. If no one approaches the tow yard and tries to get it out as the owner within 72 hours they required to start Lean paperwork that’s usually 150 to 200 hours to get the ball rolling.
A short lane is a vehicle worth less than $5000 within 30 days they will be the owner if it’s not contested along lane can go 90 days or more for vehicles worth more than 5000. So now your friend is looking at the tow fee, plus daily storage fee plus the fee to file a lien sale and some cities even have a parking tax if you can believe , it if the vehicle sitting in that lot then that’s a parking tax plus the police department might have a release fee Which could be $100 or so

Sorry to be a long-winded, but I’ve been doing this stuff for 40 years.

If you DM me or dm me license plate, I have a link that will often tell me the data was impound and the reason, but Riverside police is not goning lie to you.


The big thing having to do with the Towing is the storage fees how much per day they have to be in line with the community standard. It’s not a real science here per the business and professions code. So there’s gonna be a rate for the police department let’s say it’s $50 a day and if it’s a private party impound it could be a little more but it can’t be $300 a day for storage so if it was a police department impound. They have to go on that standard rate that’s been signed with a contract by the city of Riverside. The required to have all these fees posted in a public area of the front lobby of the tow yard. B and p code.

The biggest criminals in the world that should be no surprised to anyone are the Armenians, end of story no discussion…….

These individuals that are in the automobile business are thieves to about 99% of them. I know I’ve been down that road and their Tow operations.

If you end up at a tow shop or a body shop in North Hollywood or Glendale you’re screwed. I’ve had them impound rental cars before and ended up with a $5000 bill for one week storage.

So I go to these asses and trying to negotiate for about 1000 or 1500 and they told me to hit the road. Ok.

that’s when I call my friends at the bureau of automotive repair. They regulate businesses based on the business and profession code.

Last time one of these cocksuckers did this, and about five days later I had the investigators come in and they towed the vehicle out and told him to hit the road and got a fat citation on the spot.

As a sidenote, don’t ever in your life ever buy a used vehicle from any Armenian in Los Angeles county. Period!!!!

I’ll end it with this my last few years in the police department I worked auto theft and did shop inspections, over a 6 month timeframe

At about five Armenian shops in North Hollywood and in the city of Glendale I did the inspection or what I found during the inspection I came back later and arrested every single shop owner for receiving stolen cars


They were stripping everything known the man and reusing the parts on salvage cars they bought from the auction. They had paperwork won’t even had receipt from an Infiniti dealership to buying all the parts. I researched that and found out this asshole had got the receipt is an estimate, even though it showed paid and never ordered the parts that prick went to prison for six years. Another Romanian, almost like I had a chalkboard and started putting eyes and exes on it. Like shooting ducks in the water.

one guy I pinned 37 stolen cars on. Those two brothers went to prison for six years. F them.
Time for a cold one!

I can tell a story about how I got a car out of a tow yard in Napa when I worked for BAR but it would be pretty long winded. Suffice it to say I violated just about every section in our P&P manual but I already had 25 years in and was fully vested. I also had a supervisor who would have gone to bat for me. It must have been a sight to see me driving this woman's car down the street with a flat front tire.

Will he get his tools

The plan is to offer the title and keys in exchange for the tool. What Jeff explained to me, and I was not aware of, is that the towing company will take the registered Owner to collections for the difference between the accumulated towing & storage fees and the sale price at lien sale. So, it is in his best interest to give them legal rights to the car ASAP so they stop incurring storage fees and limit or eliminate the amount that will go to collections. Now he doesn't HAVE to do this in order to legally get his tools back, but it is likely the path of least resistance and quickest resolution to move on from a shitty situation. If he had the means to pay for the towing & storage fees once he can show legal ownership of the car, he could just go get his car and stuff back. It is not worth it to register this car in CA as there is a chance it won't pass smog and then we open a whole nother can of Bullshit none of us want to smell.

When I was selling my business, an Armenian guy showed up in a purple Bentley and got out wearing a purple suit. My broker told me not to even entertain doing business with him because he was Armenian. They definitely have a reputation.

They always showed up at my shop wanting to buy switchgear I had removed from data center tearouts. Told them in no uncertain terms to GTFO and never come back. But of course they did.

… So…Sometime in the late 90s when the Armenian subculture had not really gotten a strong foot hold… There was a place in North Hollywood called Golden Touch autobody… I had them do some work for me….I can’t remember exactly what it was …but I’m pretty sure it was an insurance claim… Somebody had run into me???…Maybe they just wrote me an estimate???… Nice guys couple of brothers… Well, I had them spot paint or actually paint the whole left front fender of my white 60 Cadillac convertible… They missed it completely, so I left the car there… Went back up to my 4 acres in Big Tujunga Canyon … And marched around the hillside, thinking how to handle this… And never having dealt with Armenians before I started thinking… how do they think… Well, I figured it out or they got tired of my Caddy sitting in their body shop anyway, they called out a representative from Glazerit paint who came out …kind of looked at it and went no-brainer. The guy told the painter how to mix the paint …the painter did what he said …came out perfect …
… So later on my thinking was… I know how to work with these guys… or work them ???…Had them block sand and a little Bondo work on the left rear quarter panel of my 73 Buick Centurion convertible… they had a new body guy and I don’t know what he did…got the Hardner wrong in the green Bondo???… Whatever he did it cracked the day after he painted it… I went down the next day, and these body shop guys already knew my style, and they told me…we will do whatever it takes to make it right because we know that you will put together a lawsuit…sue us and we will lose… I think my mountain man lifestyle may have intimidated them???…
… I don’t know what happened to that shop but . This was in my youthful more energetic days… couldn’t handle it the same way today.…

I sold my first boat to a kid that used to be a member here. Friend of a friend. Sold on payments. He never planned to pay. His dad had a tow yard and they were going to lien it. His cousin ratted him out to me. I repoed it from the front of his house. That piece of shit has disappeared probably hopefully died from karma.

Fixed

 

[SnoC653]

I know I tend to go to unusual lengths to fix situations when someone wrongs me. But, I would seriously be checking neighboring houses and/or businesses to see if there was video of the car being towed. The question is which came first, the tow truck or the alarm. Most alarms flash the lights, so if they set it off towing it, the alleged charges for the tow are still bogus. The tow company can not act as an agent for the police and cause the violation both. Which would be the case.

And yes, I understand your friends position on not wanting to poke the bear due to his past indiscretions, however he paid for that so this about who is doing something wrong now. In today's times, someone will have video coverage.
