what's the difference 60k or 15k, if one has spent everything have they on it? 15k to me is the same as 60k for my dad.
yes exactly, someone fucks it up, THEY PAY FOR IT, duh. YOU keep driving it and keep telling them FU in their face. especially when THEY fucked up and 60k and had to pay for it...
your logic doesn't make any sense, u better give up!

It's the lack of common sense demonstrated here that causes people to hate the police and/or local government agencies. And their typical smug attitude about it after the fact when it's clear they were wrong (regardless of what the law might say) only compounds it.
wow that's DC for ya

either way, that is a HORRIBLE way to treat any car, let alone such a nice car. I'm mad for her.
this makes me happy that we park our cars in the garage where they belong.

WASHINGTON - A D.C. family is saying there is a good reason why their vandalized car shouldn't have been towed.
The dilemma for Chris Thompson and her husband Mike started on Thanksgiving morning when they noticed the wheels and tires on their Audi had been stolen and the car was sitting on cinder blocks. Five days later, after filing a police report and while waiting for the new parts to come in, the city took matters into its own hands.
Earlier this week, a tow truck contracted by the Department of Public Works (DPW) dragged a $70,000 dollar car to an impound lot.
"They dragged the car with a cinder block underneath it," said Thompson. "It made me sick."
Now, Thompson is outraged, claiming the damage is estimated at $20,000. "They couldn't have run our tags, they couldn't have found us," said Thompson. "They didn't try anything."
Neighbor Melvin Peterson initially reported the car to police last week. "I was concerned that maybe it was a stolen vehicle being stripped," Peterson said.
Days later, Peterson watched as it was taken away. "When the vehicle pulled out I said, they just did a serious amount of damage to this man's car," he said.
An official with DPW said the car was given a $250 ticket and towed because it was deemed "too dangerous to be on public space".
The Capitol Hill couple, however, said no one ever notified them they were in violation. They claim they still haven't been able to talk to anyone other than a receptionist at the office.
"I was practically in tears when I got handed $250 ticket, I had to pay $120 at the impound for a car that was already vandalized," said Thompson.

I don't really feel bad for them, I can't believe they didn't move it themselves. The city should have told them first, but still, would you leave your car sitting in front of some strangers house for a week?
