- It was a busy night for our Tow Heros. Can you count all the people that went home without their cars? I lost track. Funny how they all read the signs AFTER getting towed. The white car is authorized to park in the lot. READ THE FAQs BEFORE COMMENTING

READ THE FAQs BEFORE COMMENTING:
Q: Why are cars towed from your lot?
A: Because they're parked illegally and take up space our customers need, 24 hours.
Q: But it's night-time. Businesses are closed at night. Do you really have to tow at night?
A: Yes. This business is NOT closed at night. It's very common for techs to visit in the overnight times in order to do maintenance on servers and systems. It's also possible that deliveries may need to be made during after-hours times.
Q: How do you know if it's a customer or not?
A: There is various technology at work to help with this. But the simplest answer is that if they're not in the building and they haven't checked in with the tech desk, their car doesn't belong in the lot.
Q: You suck.
A: That's not a question, but I get the point. And I've heard it all before. I understand you think you've got a witty, original insult for me. You probably don't. Save yourself the humiliation.
Q: Do you read the comments?
A: Sometimes against my better judgement, generally, yes.
Q: Why don't you just rent out spaces and make money?
A: Because that would eliminate parking spaces for the real customers of the business. It's not worth the few bucks.
Q: Do you get paid a fee or kickback for the towed cars?
A: No.
Q: Are there signs posted about not to park?
A: Yes. No fewer than 6. Usually more if they're not damaged or destroyed.
Q: Your signs are misleading. Do they say 24 hours? Should they be mounted differently?
A: The signs specify 24 hours / 7 days a week. They're mounted in accordance with local laws.
Q: How many cameras do you have?
A: More than 60. Some you can see, some are hidden.
Q: What kind of cameras do you use?
A: A lot of different kinds, based on the application.
Q: Do you feel bad for these people who get towed?
A: Most of the time, not really.
Q: Why are you making fun of the people who get towed?
A: I'm not. I'm posting the videos because I think they're entertaining and educational.
Q: How come you never post videos of cars that belong there?
A: Because that wouldn't be entertaining at all. It would be completely boring.
Q: Why don't you stop people from parking?
A: Sometimes we do! It all depends on if we are able to catch what's happening live, but the company's techs have their jobs to do and are not always available to have their eyes glued to the parking lot cameras and be able to run outside.

You should have a sign that says "If you're going to park here, please park with drive wheels out to accommodate easier towing. Thanks."
kseismoloj it depends on the car being towed, is it rear wheel drive? Front wheel? Handbrake on etc.
@@josephdy9930 Correct. I should have said, "Please park with drive wheels out."
YES!!!
While the suggestion is funny … it would be in vain … those people can't seem to read. It does seems though they are able to recognize numbers
God giveth, tow trucks take it away... because you take for granted WHAT GOD GIVETH, dunderheads.....
You should put your channel on the sign so they can watch their cars being towed on youtube
You're a genius, Mat Nasa! That would be so funny. Lol
They are making good money.
Perfect idea!

YESS!!
The fact that everyone reads the signs immediately when they return just goes to prove that they read the signs, acknowledged it, then parked there anyways. they knew exactly where their car went.
My parents parked the car in a quiet allley filled with cars but a single spot was vacant still.
*Sure it's a legit parking place, look at all the other parked cars!*
After the movie was over, my dad went to get the car, while we waited at the cinema.
When he returned, he sheepishly admitted he had received a parking ticket.
And what about the other cars?
Yup, they all got ticketed too.
@@AudieHolland okey nice joke
Just because they see the signs doesn't mean they can read them..🤣🤪
It should say park here we need the money 💰
Proves nothing. My sister got towed from a place with ambiguous signage. It wasn't clear exactly what was tow and what wasn't.
As a parking attendant it never ceases to amaze me how entitled some people feel to just leave their car wherever they please regardless of signs.
What astonishes me is that anyone would want to live in a city, where things like parking and restrooms are some kind of manna from heaven, and rents are high.
When I worked for the city I parked my work truck wherever I wanted.
I mean it's not difficult scenario to understand. You drive around 30mins finding a spot you finally find a spot at this business hours way past the closing time you figure "Eh fuck it probably just tow people who park in the day" and RIP.
this is called "predator towing", and its not right...these idiot tow drivers want to steal peoples vehicles when their back is turned
....i think tow drivers who tow peoples cars without their permission are scum.
@@JackRR15 yeah, exactly. I get that this goes against the grain of this channel, but if the parking spots aren't being used, why not share? This seems petty and anti-social for no reason. Maybe only tow if the spaces are actually needed that night?
Modern society's hard-on for claiming land and kicking everyone else out and seeing that as normal is fucking wild when you think about it. We are just hairless apes walking around the surface of a planet, but nope gotta fuck over other people who want to use this part of Earth that isn't being used by anyone else right now.
Why pay 5 bucks for lot parking when you can pay 150 for a secure impound?
True. How are you going to tell the date though? "I had my car taken to a secure facility because I wanted to drink. We will get a cab ."
The sign is probably not clear - most people would assume it's forbidden to park during working hours, and is ok while the business is closed. As evident from the number of people parking there. So I actually see it as extortion :D
cl1cka - id you watch the other videos, there is a sign that says No park at any time...
@@cl1cka The thing is that there are like 10 signs on that wall. These people don't know how to read or are they blind?
"As evident from the number of people parking there."
And there's absolutely no chance that all those people are all opportunistic/lazy/stupid, right?
Tag team towing! You need a sign that says, “if this parking space is empty, it’s because the last car got towed. Go ahead, make our day!”
Danm so underrated
Awesome!
Great idea
Make my check fatter.
If you go downtown in ANY major city and can find a parking spot near your destination easily, READ ALL THE SIGNS!!
Take a computer with you (or whatever) and take it inside so you're a "customer".
I've been towing for decades and at one point in my profession I had to do these illegally parked impounds...
I probably did it for about a year and decided to not offer my services for this because people are never nice when they come after their cars.
Sure, it pays good but I just don't like the headaches and I really like to avoid confrontations.
A friend, in customer service, walks away when treated meanly. She comes back a few minutes later and asks them to be polite and they will be helped. In the meantime, the other people in line get annoyed because the person in front of them caused a delay and now they have to wait even longer. If they insist on complaining to the manager, she replays the outburst that she recorded using her cell phone. The manager sides with the worker and tells the customer that such behavior will not be tolerated.
As someone who got their car towed before on multiple occasions I can vouch for you. We become real assholes when we see our car isn’t there. 10/10 people look right at the sign and walk away thinking they’ll get away with it. I can only say for myself tho I’m usually more pissed off at the fact I seen the sign and ignored it and karma (you guys) came and took care of it.
I would add a charge if they are assholes. Each comment adds $50
The property owners sit back and laugh. You get the blame
Wouldn't it be great to buy that building and open a tow truck company....with the tow trucks coming out of the building down that ramp?
😆
I love how they walk to where they parked and take a closer look, like maybe the car shrank. Lol
Brenda, 40 yrs ago I worked at a place that, like this place, had to keep space open. Yes, the owner of the now missing car would often walk right up to the middle of the spot where the car USED TO BE, and look around. Quite funny. ☺ One night, I even hustled over to a guy, "sir please don't park there. It'll get towed." "Sure, like last year... right" I was there when he returned, stood where car WAS, spotted & confronted me. I directed him to my boss. His was the first they towed that night!. 😁 lol
@@greggb5819 🤣🤣
What have you never parked your car gone out on a drinking session . Then the next day you cant remember where you left it , must be just me
Maybe they’re trying to put themselves in the car’s shoes like “if I were a 2018 Dodge Challenger, where would I go?”
@@geoffpriestley7001 these people are pretty much parking in front of a garage door that opens up for big rigs and other delivery vehicles.
Like would you park in front of the loading Bay at Walmart?
Parking in the city; If it looks too good and no ones parking there its probably a tow away zone.
TheKnives777 There are no parking signs on those spots.
@@kathyyoung1774 obviously...
@@kathyyoung1774 ; just in case you were serious, check the video from 4:06 to 4:11.
+Kathy Young well you're wrong there are six signs on the walls. and they are eye level with the stupid people's wins shields.
@@mistiking8382
She said there were signs. She said there were no parking signs.
She didn't say there were no no parking signs.
I had an initial negative reaction, read the FAQs and was instantly on your side, then realizing the same thing happens at my workplace causing me to be late each and every day until we got signs and permit placards for our cars.
I've been watching cars get towed our of your lot for a half an hour. And it's still more entertaining than anything currently on television
Agree
I feel like the truck drivers get no credit do you see how quick they load those suckers up! Good job lol
Ramon diaz that wasn't a good job they destroyed the under carriages of those cars relentlessly. Would you want your car towed that way?
J.P. Ignelzi yea ? Which one of them got destroyed
Was just about to say. These guys are getting this shit cleared in record time. Making it look easy
J.P. Ignelzi i wouldn’t want my car towed any way.
No time for bullshit!!
Wait, how about making some food stand there so you can sell them food, newspapers, etc. while they are waiting?
Lol great idea
Or a taxi stand!
Lol yes!~
It would probably get towed 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
They wouldn't know what they were selling. They can't read . . .
This is why teaching reading comprehension is so important in our schools 🙏🏿🙏🏿
I just love happy party goers but really love it when they come back drunk to find no car. They make new friends through common circumstance. It's adorable.
"You get a tow!... You get a tow!... EVERYONE GETS A TOW! 🙆♂️🙆♀️"
"Everybody look under their cars - there's a tow for everybody!"

Random Someone g
all hail oprr......
Haha i know where u got that from!! Scoopsi a tow .. u got a TOW!!!
I swear I'd go there, grab popcorn and some snacks, with a folding chair and just watch LOL.
Probably more entertaining than the nightclub or bar they all go to.
Best to try this on a event night or fair
+MissFaith Hehe, oh, someone's too ugly to go there....
+TheDiamond You'd just get bored sitting there for hours. I'd rather just watch it fast forwarded on RUclips from my home.
How far from the airport is that. I sure wouldn't want to drive lolol
These tow drivers have next level driving skills. I love their trucks, though I never seen one like this in real life.
Love these videos. And I sympathize with you. It’s not easy when a number of people who spend a ton of money on booze and parties and don’t want to spend on parking.
You did what I would do. The videos are entertaining.
ever stop and think that maybe there is no parking?
@@Burger_pants ever stop and think that there is most definitely parking probably a block or two away? It's a city.
@@cheesyfacechase4998 What pisses me off if the on that parked right next to the legally parked car was totally hitting it with their door. Later other losers were leaning against it. If it is not your car, don't touch it.
@@Burger_pantsthere's always parking in downtown. You just gotta be willing to pay for it. There is private parking and metered parking. Free parking is what they want
You need to put up a sign like McDonald's this many cars towed so far.
Nonya Business I highly agree.
Here at McTowing.. We always have it our way
great idea!
Lol, only make it a play on words. A hairy foot with the big toe yanked out. Below that a digital TOE TALLY!
People might actually read that and say "I'm afraid to leave The Betsy anywhere near this concrete nuthouse!" But of course they will still add to the Tinkle River. 🤣
@I_Said_ OU812 There is a corner there where people frequently pee, and it runs down to the street. When playing it back he runs a "Tinkle Timer". Lol
the towing company must love you guys
Oh the poster of these vids is making plenty off of it as well.
@@rolson6775 plenty of what from who?
Balloon Boy he’s saying if the videos are monetized the person uploading is making money
@@alexalopezzz yeah I thought he meant from the tow company because the vid poster isn't but even then the vids aren't always long enough to make any actual money
I'd say the people they must love are the idiots who park illegally with all those signs right in front of their faces. Talk about easy money, they might as well have just stayed home and made a donation to the towing company.
The tow truck guys in these blow me away with their skill
If you do anything over and over again you get better at it. Plus, these are drivers with good spatial awareness, to begin with. If they weren't good at it they'd be fired a long time ago, because you can cause a ton of damage if you don't know what you're doing.
nah they're banging the cars up and they just don't care, it's called tow damage look it up
These videos are so funny and satisfiying to watch, honestly.
I work at an event venue and we have clearly marked the perimeter with signs that say "Parking only with authorization, all others will be towed!" as well as clearly marked emergency access points, emergency exits etc. One day before a concert I was called up because somebody parked their white Porsche Cayenne in the emergency access road, right underneath the sign that said "Do not park here, this is an emergency access road!" Since the concert hadn't started yet I went on the PA and made an announcement, urgently requesting said vehicle to be removed immediately, which it was. Less than a week later, at another concert, I was called up again, and what can I say? The very same Porsche Cayenne was parked in the very same spot. Since this time the concert had already started, I didn't go on the PA and immediately called the towing company. They arrived about half an hour later and were cheered on by about 20 people from our maintenance, kitchen, service and what not. When the concert had ended I went up to our concierge because that's where people usually go if they have questions or need help. Didn't take long for the owner of said Porsche Cayenne to shop up (a local politician, deputy mayor of my hometown, no less), and he was like "I understand my car might've been towed...", and I was just like "Yep, sure was..." He tried playing the whole thing down, like "Ah you know how it is, when you arrive so shortly before a concert and there are no other parking spots...", to which I just replied "Nope, quite honestly I don't know how that is, because first of all I always plan on arriving for a concert with quite a bit of time, and secondly, in case I only just barely make it on time, I don't park my car in an emergency access road, out of which I have been called away literally six days prior!!!" His face was red as a beet. I then gave him the number of the towing company so he could call them to make arrangements to get his car back, and really had to turn away to make sure I wasn't gonna burst out with laughter, because once he got the number he turned to his companion and went "Can I borrow your phone to call the towing company? Mine is in the car..." 🤣🤣🤣
Supervisor: "How's business?"
Tow truck company: "BOOMING!!"
one day he will do it to the wrong person it happens
@@191246mann1 It’s Texas, the tow truck employees are definitely armed. Rightfully so.
@@DistinguishedSombrero So why put this on youtube ....he is doing it to make fun of people armed or not he can still get what he is asking for.There are plenty of people out there that have been shot for a lot less,,,,can't you see there is enough trouble in this world without this.
@@191246mann1 I mean you can say about this as much as you want, but at the end of the day. All these people that got towed parking their are in the wrong, they chose to ignore the sign. The business itself has the right to make recording of these as its also within their property and accesible public spaces. Infact the existence of this channel probably bring warning to all driver to take no parking sogn seriously
@@KienNguyen-be1qy Just saying how unnecessary it is to set these people up for ridicule and that they may well hold a grudge I know I would .they may also bump into them at some time or the may get a nutter who will brood on it and if that is the risk they want take ,these people have had their cars taken away and had to pay to get them back that should be the end of the punishment not carry it to public humiliation ,,,some of the comment here are from people who are gloating and having a laugh at the videos.I am just pointing out the dangers,
"I'm bored. I know what! Let's go downtown and throw $150 away!"
"Sounds like a plan."
TheFarmanimalfriend i’ve seen on here if you catch em before they pull away cost $250 or 275 to drop it right there. I wonder what it cost at the lot. Either way the cost is robbery
Depends on the state. In CO if you catching them towing it the maximum allowed fee is $70. And other stuff. My car was getting towed from school (wrong parking lot) I taped it happening as well as the guy A. Over charging (he wanted $100) and B only wanted cash(must accept credit) took it to the company office after the tow and showed them CO laws and they just gave me back my vehicle with no charge. Still a waste of an hour
@Ruben O. Sure that's an option. If you're an ignorant savage.
@Ruben O. I love the effort you put into that instead of just saying r/whoosh. 10/10, would look at again
Ruben O. That was a lame joke though 🤷🏽♂️
July, 2023. I've been binge watching all the old videos BECAUSE I MISS YOU GUYS SO BADLY!
I absolutely hate entitlement and the idea that rules don’t apply, so these videos are rather satisfying to watch. You would think word would get around and people would realize this lot was not to be messed around in. That being said, I really feel anxious for the tow truck operators. It’s got to be nerve wracking in case a customer comes out and starts becoming belligerent or even violent. I’ve known of a man that killed a guy for putting a jacket on his car at a party - definitely a risky job.
Watching those two trucks work together, it's like a ballet.
I was almost in tears at how well that was synchronized!
Team mates. like one hand washes the other. they don't have to say anything to each other, they just know what to do.
I had no idea there were tag-team maneuvers for tow trucks....
Like Olympic synchronized swimming lol
@@daniel343ful they got 2-way radios.. not so expensive and all the rage for keeping teams in contact...
Note to self: If I own a business with a parking lot like this...open a Tow truck business as well.
Burfid just make sure your business is near nightclubs and bars and you’ll make bank
Just have a lot to store the cars. Charge more for foreign cars.
Dam I want to make bank
also a taxi score two ways.
@@2199 Domestically made foreign cars or the foreign made domestics? More money for Americans is made off foreign vehicles made in America than foreign made Ford and GM vehicles.
I can't help myself from binge watching this! It's it's so, satisfying.
6:41 _"This ain't Dominos & the tow truck doesn't deliver. He just takes away!"_
Why is that line so perfect? XD
The funniest part is all the people standing around wondering where their cars went, when the trucks arrived for the second harvest.
the worst part is that they're millennial, don't know anything about the effects of towing
That towing company probably saw a good payday that night.
Lol the second harvest hahahah
'Second Harvest". That's a unique way of putting it. Very cool.
blindleader42 harvest 😭😂😂😂 I'm dead*
Such fine folk in that city, donating their vehicles.
Rathernot Disclose I love this comment.
best comment I've seen all day
Hahahaha!
I bet the impound lot is BEGGING the tow trucks to stop coming because they're afraid they'll run out of space!
After watching several of these clips I find this one the most entertaining because so many people upset that their car got towed get to stand there and watch as more cars get hooked up! Beautiful!
EPIC! I love how they are hanging around as if their car is going to 're-appear'..PRICELESS!
I'm so old I can remember when tow truck drivers had to get out and hook a chain to your car. Today? Easy peasy.
Repo trucks gone in 20 seconds.
These trucks are meant to hook and go. They usually drive down the street a little and strap it down. This way, you dont have a belligerent owner coming out with a baseball bat or a gun while youre securing it.
flatbed truck with. Chains?some Still use ITV!
I think repo drivers are the reason for the use of those bars. In fact, some cities call them repo bars because of that. It's very easy to quickly get the wheels off the ground. Some will wrap two rubber straps around the tires to make sure the car doesn't slip off the bars if they have drive a long distance.
I’m 22 and had my old broken down car towed and they used chains, so it must be a local ordinance sort of deal on using chains or not.
when that little video showed how many sign are on the wall we cannot do anything but laugh at those peoples
Right? how can they miss so many signs :|
@@acutepotato6792 they don't miss them
Yeah, they probably just don't care.
What video?
At 4:06
I've read the FAQ and I completely understand now. Some time ago I was working for company with a lot of servers & other devices in server housing facility (running 24/7) located in a center of a big city. The housing parking was all the time full of non-custommers cars at any thinkable day&night time, despite signs forbidding parking there. Grrr. We had to move heavy equipment some city blocks away from the housing building many times. 😕 Or break the law and park our car on the pathway. So I understand that you care about your customers.
I don't know whats so good about these, i just can't stop Watching
Why are they always so shocked? 😒
Because who tows a lot when it's not in use after hours?
@@ChristopherHalbersma the place is open 24/7, there is no after hours.
@@ChristopherHalbersma allegedly theres also several signs that say not to park there. Idk how people can miss that I get anxious as heck watching for those
@@crwmike0 The occupancy of the lot seems to disagree.
They’re a tech business. Sometimes they have technicians to work on the servers and deliveries made late night. They can’t have those deliveries with a full lot
That no parking sign isn't meant for me. After all I'm special
Especially the "women" or "cowboys"!
LOL!
I'm a Janitor for my local municipal government.
I've damn near had violent aneurysms over the shit people think they can get away with.
Part of my job is to close the public restrooms, and they are on a timed lock, which almost never actually works on the time you set it to. So either it locks 10 minutes late, or 10 minutes early.
Because it's on a timer, I can't lock it myself unless I go inside, get the key, go around the building, pull down the attic stairs, and manually switch it off. So I used to just take it on the chin and tell people it's closed when they came in. Eventually I realized the big 6am to 6pm sign right next to the door wasn't working enough. So I would put a "closed" sign right in the door. Like, in your face as you open it.
Still didn't work. People would say "oh I didn't see the sign"
The one that broke me, like really broke me. Was when I put that sign up. Then another yellow one that said "restroom closed" *inside* the door as you open it, and then blocked the doorway with wet floor signs, and finally put a LADDER open and blocking the door. I barricaded the door essentially. And I shit you not, I had 3 people open that motherfucking door and try squeezing through around them all. I heard it from the supply closet and lost my shit. I just shouted as aggressively as I could. "ITS CLOSED."
"Oh, oh, I didn't see the sign!"
"YES YOU DID."
I cam around the corner and saw them bolt. People are little entitled shits man lol
Entitled...
As in "Special Education".
Never thought I’d be watching so many of your videos. It’s just so funny and satisfying seeing so many uncaring people getting what should come their way 😆
Idk why this is so entertaining to watch for some reason music and sounds affects on point also. Very good
“THIS AINT DOMINOS AND THE TOW TRUCK DONT DELIVER” 😂😂😂
Justin Lang i died at that part
Justin lang I agree with you cause I'm in the process of saving up money to buy a dodge ram 5500 flat bed tow truck that burns diesel fuel if I catch anyone parked illegally even if there in a handicap parking space and if I don't see any handicap card or plate on the car I'll fucking tow it at the car owners expense
@@lelandbrowniii5168 I love you for this.
Justin Lang or this isn’t Burger King have it your Way hahaha
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂👍
The best part is watching them realize they dont have friends good enough to come pick them up😂😂😂😂😂
They're like, "I gotta pay for an Uber like everyone else??"
Lye Zaard Which is why I always read signs! Signs are better than friends anyways...
that's gold...pure gold... you couldn't wish for a better scenario after some loser gets their car grabbed, and their mouth is writing checks their ass can't cash. to see them walking down the street, and can't even get a bus because its 335 am and the last bus was @315am, oooh you were so close... you just missed it...lol
I'll bet Mom would be very proud of them. Hey, why don't you call mom?
I'd be one of those friends that wouldn't pick up the phone. Then call the day after and be like "sorry I missed you calls/texts, wasup?"
Cool how both trucks can work together.
WHAT PROFESSIONALISM
That's the most efficient tow I've ever seen. So quick, so satisfying
"This ain't Dominos and the tow truck doesn't deliver. He just takes away!" So mean😂😂😂😂😂😂
But so satisfying...
it's actually briliant hahaha
How bout Menulog? Do they do Menulog?
Juanita the finance company giveth the tow truck man taketh away..... he loves it the filthy animal!
I wonder if they ever towed some scar that is suppose the be there on business..
If you haven't, you should open a small Tow Company.... 2 man crew on standby, with a small lot that you own. Think it would be profittable.
And then you get a garage somewhere there and a constant stream of "business" is guaranteed. I have a feeling the towing company is making more than the shop itself...
I'm sure these guys are getting kickbacks from the tow company.
Hamfists Man they aren't. Read the description
Trace Jones he read it, he’s saying they’re lying
CeeWorld glad you can read minds
This is pure gold!
A cinematic masterpiece!
I really needed the laughter.
Thanks.
You guys doing these cool videos are DOING A NICE JOB!!! THANK YOU!!!!!
I loved the double tow truck teamwork there! Haha
Yep, that's cool
Rachel Jackson that’s a tag-team in action !
I've watched several videos, and I was hoping for a two-fer!
Tag team? I wonder if either of them said, "You just made the list."? lol
It’s so they make more money my guys
The best of all these videos is when you can see the driver OR the passenger OR both clearly see, read, and discuss the sign, and then still walk away without moving the car. Classic.
Adam Mielnicki yes. They failed Critical Thinking Skills 101.
@@veronicamascaro5858 I would say they assume during normal business hrs it would be in affect, but personally I would never take the chance fk that shit.
@@Dante_S550_Turbo The sign apparently says 24/7 but I'd bet they think there isn't anyone around to call it in at night.
And it's one thing if a person parking thinks 'hey, I'm just going to be in and out of where I'll be and I can come back and get out before any tow trucks can ever even show up.' But these are gone hours at a time! How could they possibly think their car is still going to be there??? I don't get it.
I keep thinking they should try an addition to the signs. 'You are under video surveillance. If we record you reading the signs and still parking here, all fines will be quadrupled'. Wouldn't do much good, but it'd be nice to see if it changes how long they think about it.
One of the things I like most about this series is how other drivers react to seeing prowling tow trucks.
"Oh look, a wide open parking spot. Have we found the gold at the end of the rainbow?"
DRUMBEATS
"NevermindforgetIsaidanythinkokbye"
Once the wild tow truck spots its victim there is almost no hope for the prey item to escape. This is especially true when prey is plentiful and the tow trucks natural pack hunting instinct is triggered.
These videos have taught me a valuable lesson. If I ever see a no parking sign I'm gonna keep it pushing😉
The tow company must love this place its a profit maker.
Betcha they other contracts in the area, plus they are not far from downtown and the Texas state fairgrounds.
Some of those sites would be called money pits for that very reason
Taxi company could do lots of business as well:)
The business has a problem. It's a symbiotic relationship.
I'd put up a Uber sign!
The thing that trips me out about these videos is if you pay close attention. The entire Alley is laced with Tow Signs. Someone even spray painted "No parking" on the opposite wall. Even if you didn't see the ones directly in front of you, at least one had to catch their eye. Personally it would make me question where I just parked if I saw that many signs. Also, what's standing around going to accomplish? Tow companies usually aren't that far from where they towed you. They could have called an Uber and went and got their cars in all the time they sat around pouting.
While there are many signs that say it is a tow area, the "No Parking" on the opposite wall is less likely to be recognized as a warning for the tows cause it's painted on what looks like to be a loading and unloading area for goods or other things. Many people would look at it and be like "Oh they may open that door and my car could be hit, not gonna park in front of that."
I only see signs that look somewhat official across the street... and that property/business owner doesn't seem to have it as a business model to tow cars!
I doubt they even have signs on this side of the street. why then they need cameras?
to alert movement to the owner so he can be up all night calling tow trucks?
or do they need them to prove themselves in court?!
daghrb6 They very obviously have a sign on the building in front of the parked card, you can see people taking pictures of it in other videos for the tow number
daghrb6 Also, at around 4:05 they show video of all the signs on the building...
@@TheVarmari nice catch!
I thought these videos couldn’t get any more satisfying and then bam! TWO tow trucks at once 👌🏻
They're all thinking, "Oh it won't happen to me because I'm me!"
The towing company must love this place
It really can be great business. A buddy of mine owns a towing company with 5 trucks (planning to add 2 more within the next 6 months). In my city they can bid on which areas they want to cover. He moved up and bid on an area that covers a local sports arena. It includes a parking garage for the attendees but many try to get around it by parking in a local grocery store lot. On a big game night with a full staff he can bring in no fewer than 40-50 cars. He was considering at one point buying a flat bed where he could also tow a second car on it's wheels behind but decided that the extra time it takes to load two cars wasn't worth it.
predatory towing. Pretty scummy business but makes for great youtube videos.
@@Whatupitskevin They're keeping at least some spaces clear for customers, otherwise the lot would just fill up with illegally parked cars. And the miscreants pay for the whole thing! Nothing scummy about it, it's excellent.
@@Whatupitskevin .. how is it scummy, those cars are parked on private property and there are plenty of NO PARKING SIGNS posted. Sounds like you like parking on private property and or in somebody else's space yourself ?
@@Whatupitskevin it isn't predatory if you have the common sense and reading skill of a 5 year old, these people learned a lesson, be better aware of their surroundings and pay attention next time lol
I've always been curious as to what amazing place everyone seems to want to go to in order to risk losing their cars.
FF Legend IIRC GTOger has said that there's a music club nearby.
So many dumbasses, so few hard lessons learned... I think it's a night club
c4 or an EDM show 😂😂😂
Bar restaurants maybe a club
@Michael Vechnak pot? Is that you? I'd like to introduce you to my friend kettle.
Your videos were recommended, not sure why but I do enjoy them. Makes me want to come by and say hi...
Never ceases to amaze me all the people who don't use their parking brake, making it easier to tow front wheel drives especially. Must think "park" on the gear lever is a brake, not a transmission lock.
You need a sign that says "DAYS SINCE LAST TOWING" like some company have DAYS SINCE LAST ACCIDENT. I wonder how high it would go?
I get the distinct impression that one could stencil in "0" and it would be accurate at all times.
days?
Minutes instead of days would work better.
The side of the wall should have a stamper on how many they've taken away.
Probably 4 days. Monday-Thursday. I'm sure the majority of tows happen Friday and Saturday evenings, and by extension Sunday mornings.
My only comment is to add an LED panel to keep a running total posted: “47 cars towed this year. Now serving #48”
:-)
My thoughts exactly. Unfortunately, it would make no difference. Let's face it- we're not dealing with rocket scientists.
That would be brilliant to start and end each video with.
RD Cre8tv $7,350 so far for the towing company from this lot alone, I'm in the wrong business
@@kalel21675 You say that until you get multiple calls per week at 2 or 3 in the morning and you have to respond if you want to keep your business credible.
longshot726 fine by me, I rarely sleep, I'm all about making that money.
I remember my car getting towed from a vacant lot in Virginia Beach, VA. without any signs that prohibited. There were several other cars parked there as well. We were all towed away. About a month later the local news aired a story about that lot, the owner and the tow company were in cahoots. It was a purposeful action that made them a TON of money over several weeks. It was quite the racket.
that's usually how this stuff goes...OP probably put the supposed signs up after lmao
tow truck vampires all really wish they could be cops but can't because of their priors LOL
@@TwoTreesStudio
You can see no parking written on the walls of the alley. Also, what are all the people getting out of their cars to look at of not the signs?
Doesn't matter if it was a vacant lot if you don't have permission to park there.
This looks like the same place cars always get towed from. When will they ever learn?
I love the sound when the tow truck shows up!😂😂😂
These are all the same people who run stop signs, red lights, turn on red w/o stopping, ignore speed limits, speed thru flashing school zones, circle store parking lots to find an up front spot, take up 2 spaces by not caring about the paint lines on the pavement, drive in thru the exit signs, park in a handicap spot w/o a plaque, ride your rear end because you are only going 5mph over the speed limit and you are blocking them, hauling butt passed you-then slam on their breaks and turn right, pass you at a high rate of speed and only to be right in front of you at the red light- then the light turns green and they are not moving because they are staring at their smart phones instead of the green light- thus you have to tap your horn to break their day dreaming/cell phone addiction moment- only to have them stick their middle finger out the window at you.
Bill Doe I got angry just by reading this.
you didnt mention pass other cars crossing the double yellow line....
You forget liberal, old, drive 20 under the speed limit, and almost run people off the road.
Highlighted reply/ puberty clouds your thoughts.
Yeh, AND won't let people use their empty car park after hours.
There’s actually no business going on in that building. The building is where they keep the tow trucks.
That would be too funny! Imagine the building was just one wall, a false front. No building behind it. You park there. You come back, your car is gone. You call the number on the wall, the guy gives you an address on the cross street. You go there, it’s right around the corner, and the impound lot is on the other side of the wall. There would be some mad mthrfkrs.
@@620john620 lol what a great way to make a living with sod all going on in the building 🤣
LMAO!
Parking scam..Wow.Baited
@@620john620 you wouldn't even have to have a tow truck, just a arm that reached out a door and draged the car through it or a conveyor belt that just carried the car inside.
The double slow drive by at the end had me rollin lol
If this ever gets picked up as a Netflix series or something, I'd totally watch it. I love these videos.
"NO PARKING:
Violators will be posted to RUclips"
Obligatory "STOP! YOU VIOLATED THE LAW!"
Lol
*raped on youtube...what? whaaat?
Dayum… Tow trucks are double teaming now? LOL 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yup double teaming. First they grab'em from the back, spin'em around, and get'em in the front. Trucks Gone Wild: Tow-tally Uncut.
Why isn't this on Tow-rnHub yet?
They’re both the same company, teaming how?
On event nights, they do.
The last pass through at the end was priceless, adding a lil' insult to injury....PERFECT! lol.
Why can't people ever seem to learn *NOT* to park there?!
Also, the 'drumbeats' make the towing scenes much more hilarious! XD
pretty sure the white car was just an employee car the parking space is only permitted for employees if i recall,, it’s not a bait car
Yea, it said earlier that, that car is a employee’s car.
Permitted for employees and customers
Yeah the description of the video says that. What I don't get is how the tow drivers know who not to tow.
@@spoton3278 they are probably given a list of employee number plates for night time and during hair when their place is open...I guess the radio in which cars ain't a customer
@@spoton3278 also when the company is called they are probably given make and model(s) to tow.
Tow service connecting people
this made me laugh hard
How nice of them
XD
XD
Your channel never ceases to entertain me! I'm curious, how many vehicles get towed per week or month? Just fascinated at the scale of the tow-economy you're contributing to!
Those tow guys are awesome. Best skills and perfect teamwork.
*Typical soft/calm old British man voice on a documentary*
"Here we see the tow trucks in their natural habitat. They have young ones back home, so are on the prowl to find food for them, before the harsh winter comes."
*in same voice* Now watch as the tow trucks catch their prey to feed their offspring.
Lmao 😂👏
LAFF N LAFF N. GOOD ONE !
In the same voice.
"See how they work together to maxamize their catch. Timing is everything out here in the concrete jungle. One mistake could mean the difference between a successful catch and nothing at all."
Made my day :D
1. It makes me sad to know there are SO MANY stupid or entitled people in the world.
2. It is VERY satisfying to watch their cars being towed.
3. I still don’t think it’s going to teach ALL of them to be more careful!
How funny that more than one person in most cars and are too cheap to gather up $5--$15 to pay for parking,everyone wants everything for free and when they find out they owe money they get mad,jaja this channel is like the best movie ane i love thr sounds they put in i be dying laughing,great job
@@pablowestbrooks7283 Right. They are going to spend more than that on food and drinks, yet they can't afford the parking toll. $15 vs $150? Somebody should tell them that paying for parking is cheaper than tow fines.
Is there a parking garage near there?
Amen to that!
They won't be taught a lesson until the fine for this type of stuff is raised to a very high level. I'm a firm believer that the amount you pay should be based on the type of car you have, for example if your car is a silly luxurious one (like a Masarati) then you should pay through the nose to get it back. Basically, the amount you should pay to get it out of the tow lot should be 10% of the MSRP, and the more it gets towed (IE: the more you think that you are above the law and can park anywhere, thus get towed) the higher the percentage gets.
LOL that's it I gotta sub up. Been watching these all morning they just keep getting better and better lol. I absolutely love the way you put the little squeaky doors and high heel clicks and funny little noises in these videos. They are so subtle that actually you don't even notice them sometimes at first watch LOL. Great stuff you got a new subscriber.
As a quick aside I got so lucky one day my best friend and I went to Vegas and we parked underneath in a garage. Went for a couple hours to the casino came back car was still there but I realized I was parked in a limousine parking structure LOL I am so lucky I didn't get towed there was a sign on the other side of the wall of the stall where I was parked haha
holy shit your channel had like 20k subs last time I wathced, man you have grown fast! still the same music too i love it
1:33 "Notice the Tow-Truckodomus in it's natural habitat, in search of poor unaware illegally parked automobiles."
"First she must size up the dimensions of her prey. Then in a flash... she strikes!"
*Intense drumming*
*Why is this not the top comment?*
And why did i read that with David Attenborough's voice?
Everyone did
What I don't get is why they are all waiting around there. It's not a valet service. They're not going to bring your car back if you wait long enough.
Trying to line up a ride home, is my guess.
obviously waiting for a ride? not that hard to infer sweetheart
All of those groups of people were waiting for a ride? None of them call a cab? Some of them were out there for over an hour. And if they were waiting for someone, why wait in the back on a side street? Go wait out front.
Why are you so concerned about how they're waiting for their ride lmao
lmao not everyone can afford the cab fee and may have someone willing to pick them up among other things. I would think it's pretty obvious and even easy to assume why people wait around for a bit.
Signs galore but figure it doesn't mean them lol. Love watching your tow videos and their shocked faces.
Haha, just love that drumbeat when he arrives😂
There's a million fuggin' signs and these people are just like "nah".
Looks like they need a No Loitering sign too... hahahah
LOL when that big girl saw them, her mind tried to make a connection to her mouth but da club' got in the way. The entire fking wall is covered in tow zone signs.
Just let them park, what are you, jealous?
@@-ahvilable-6654 Um. It's illegal. So No.
@@-ahvilable-6654 it's illegal you brain dead idiot.
I'm impressed by the skill of the towing guys. Able to manipulate the cars in such a close space, no banksman and not even needing to leave the cab. That's mad skills.
That is what happens when they do this every day all year. If you practiced at anything that much you'd become good at it. It isn't really that special at all.
mikejohns777 so what you're saying is they've dedicated time and effort to becoming skilled in something that requires you to dedicate time and effort to in order to be good at it.
What's not special about that? Not that one has to do a special activity to impress someone either, it's a learned skill and they execute it rather well.
I don't think it particularly goes to the level of special. There are tow truck drivers that definitely do special things with their skills and knowledge... the ones doing recovery in very unique and interesting locations with flipped over semis and cars that are down embankments or in water. I don't think these guys could do their job, but I'm very certain the ones doing recovery work can do the jobs of these guys.
I'll grant you this though: Not everyone can do what they are doing either. There are some real dummies out there.
mikejohns777 who's to say these guys don't flip cars? As a recovery firm you'll be limiting your business if you can't recover cars from the side of the road. I'd have thought that the ability to recover a car from a crash site is a standard skillset for any tow truck driver, it certainly is in the UK.
Perhaps the adept way in which they were able to manipulate the vehicles in such a tight space comes from years of experience recovering vehicles from all sorts of situations.
Meh. These guys have one mission.
I love the tag team approach. Really speeds up getting the cars out of the way.
I love the teamwork with the tow truck drivers. That makes it really quick. Why does it take so long for them to come back? You said the impound lot is close. Must be all of the paperwork that needs to be done.
Paperwork, and sometimes other calls. I can either go back to impound or help out the old lady with the flat tire.
if you literally owned a parking lot like so, and a tow truck, you could keep yourself in business and probably make a hefty profit..
It's funny that the videos seem to come from the property they are being towed from. It's a win win for them.
The videos are coming from the property, they need 24/7 access and alert the tow company immediately when there is an unauthorised vehicle parked.
That’s actually a brilliant plan.
Thats for life cause you always will have dumb and cheap drivers to not oay for parking and the counties always saying they dont have money for this and that but you jave dumb people just saying here is my money come get it but the county is too stupid to take the eazy money
No, because people would pay for a parking lot.
What you need is somewhere that's NOT a parking lot but is tempting for people to park in anyway.
I like how they tag team the cars
Team work!
Good job boys ! One of the more satisfying things to watch at 2am !
That music change when the tow truck rolls up like the final boss entering on the 5th level of an NES game.👍🏾😂
If I was the owner of that building I would install some vending machines right outside. Sodas, snacks , chips, Looking for your car? Have a snack while you search.
With a big sign reading "Tow-away Snackbar" in neon lights.
Someone would smash it, even on video..
I deal with the same people at my work. There are tons of signs and they are shocked when their car is gone. I get pissed when cars park in front of our bay doors. I have no sympathy at all for these people.
My father had a reserved parking spot at work. It said, quite clearly, "Reserved for XXX." He would come back from lunch, and there would be some strange car in his spot. So he would park in back of it and go back to his office. Eventually he would get a call and go down to the receptionist, and some doofus would apologize like crazy and ask him to please move his car. On one occasion it was someone who was visiting the next building over, and it didn't dawn on him that he shouldn't be parking in a marked spot.
Some people just don't think. And this was back in the early 70's.
(And he was careful to park in a way that didn't block anyone else. Only the guilty party was obstructed).
If there are some notices indicated no parking or private parking area, these cars are well deserve to be tow away... People has to learn thru hard way...
well you have to figure the other side of the situation. Is it the company normal business hours. There are no parking signs in places like bank parking lots, etc. But 24 hour no parking shouldn't be authorized unless the company is doing business during those hours. Parking off hours isn't hurting anyone, if that's the case someone is just trying to make money, or annoy people. If your company is open 7am -6pm, someone at 11 pm parking and going to a nearby club, etc isn't affecting your parking area at all. Now, if you have people come into work at 7am and cars are parked, then you can call the Tow. But as you can read in the description of the poster, THIS business should be enforcing those parking rules because they are open that late and aren't a part-of-the-day business so its fine. They are keeping their spaces clear for customers/workers, etc in a small limited space. So on this, 100% kudos to the business and very enjoyable videos. On the other side, also remember that some places don't need to enforce 24 hour rules, but do so out of profit/meanness.
Even at odd hours, even if they are closed, if a company posts no parking signs, or Customer Only signs, they are allowed to enforce that policy. Some businesses have had bad experiences with people who parked overnight, and have had to create a no parking policy. It has nothing to do with making money, it has to do with keeping their lot clear and avoiding liability problems. It's their lot, they are allowed to create the policy they want. Private property. It's the same as your home: even if you are on vacation, it still belongs to you, and other people aren't allowed to use it.
No, if it's my property, and I have a right to it. I don't want you there parking at 11 pm. Just because it isn't hurting anyone doesn't mean you have a right to it. *Stop acting entitled* to things you don't even own.
Thank you for the epilepsy alert greatly appreciate that mad respect
What's even funnier than this is that I live a thousand miles away and even I know not to park there
especially when you hear drum beats
