The towed my project car away because it was parked out on my street in front my house without plates, which I had no choice because my parents rented a dumpster because my dad gets his brand new Harley Davidson in a couple weeks. It pisses the hell out of me, because now I have to go get the damn freaking car and they want to charge me $150 for taking away, which is freaking retarted....I hate parking control, bunch of a..holes....and the guy that came and got it towed bugged me the first day and i told him the whole story and how it would be off within 5 days, and within then they ticketed me once and towed it.....
I'm so mad....because its my beta swapped accent, that im just about to finish and put on the road, but now this snag is going to set me back a week.....freaking idiots.

Actually, having lived in mississauga, standard operating procdures for them is to follow up on warnings and tickets, and yes they do cruise around looking for infractions, same thing in Brampton, just north of mississauga. Normally you could call and get permission to park, but you need to have a plate on the car. Do you have a 1 or 2 car driveway.

Ya the neighbourgh at the top of my street doesn't like us at all, but everyone else i'm cool with, the rest of them have been living here since we were kids...We only have a 1 car driveway, which is the unfortunate part, plus my dad got the dumpster twice, which also didn't help. Now I will be going finally later today or tomorrow morning to pick the stupid thing up, which really sucks because now I have to bring it home, or just spend 30mins in their parking lot and bleed the brakes, stick the exhaust on from the manifold part only....and bleed the clutch lol...cause the rest of the interior i can finish after, seeing as the main stuff is all hooked up

I have had cars unjustly towed before too. It sucks.
The last one a guy was working on my Blazer for me because he hit my car and had no money...it's a long story...but anyways I was driving home and saw my Blazer on the tow truck which should have been parked at his house. I pulled sideways in the road to block him and get the story. I talked him into dropping it at my house but I had to pay something like $167.50 to get him to take it off the truck. I got the money out of the guy that was supposed to be working on it that night. I can be very convincing at times. Anyways, his landlord had given him permission to bring the Blazer there and work on it, then they called the tow truck to come pick it up. I was there when the landlord okayed it too, plus the landlord knew how to get a hold of me and I would have moved it.
The other time I bought a Datsun 210 sedan from a friend for $25 and parked it at my old apartment. We specifically had NO limit on the number of cars we could have parked there, they just had to be in running condition. The Datsun ran great, just needed a head gasket or it would overheat after a while. The management decided the car was too crappy looking I guess and gave 3 days notice (on the windshield) that they were going to have it towed if I didn't remove the car. I didn't drive it those 3 days so I didn't see the note and it got towed. I reported the car stolen, as I had heard nothing, and the police found it had been towed. The towing company wanted something like $385 to get it back. For a $25 car. I told them to fvck off and signed over the title to them (that way they can't sue me to pay).
