- You might have had to deal with this. You walk out to find your car or truck has been towed. It happens - but if you think it’s an illegal tow, what can you do? One South Florida solution is to call Help Me Howard with Patrick Fraser.

It was a blessing that his van got towed.. now he’s famous and i think he going to need to expand his business..
Christopher seems like a stand-up guy. We need more people like Christopher in this world. Way to stand up for yourself and take care of that good looking family Christopher.
That's why you don't move into that type of neighborhood it's run like a cult
100% agreed
So if one of their renters called a cleaning company to clean their furniture or carpet, you're going to call the towing company and have them towed? That's just wrong!
What BS! People suck. Messing with the guy's livelihood.
especially with a child. they should be locked up
It worked out for this guy. But I'll bet anything the towing company took his magnets off the van themselves. Then took a picture showing the lettering was visible, then towed it.
Absolutely.
Yep that id bet on.
Association is a key word. Their rules are in favor of them, not the residents.
Tow companies are unscrupulous; bet they removed the magnets to make a quick buck. Apartment complex/management company did the right thing, though.
I think that's funny that they knew they were guilty as Sin because they replace the magnets and everything else LOL I love it when the bullies get bullied
except, the tow co was wrong, drunkard
Both were wrong@@jiogcyihsugyiocjfdoivhphvw6821
These "No Commercial Vehicles" rules are ridiculous and need to go away.
i do wonder if maybe someone stole the giant magnets..... people steal stupid things all the time. maybe thats why they said there were none.
I recon it was tow company seeing as they also think they can ban him
Why would anyone steal them? It is much more likely that the tow truck operator took them off and threw them away. So he could make another tow.
@@Marty4650 idk, people stole the signs off of my fathers truck. hence why i wonder.
No chance in hell the parking enforcement/tow company would agree to replace the magnets out of the kindness of their hearts if they hadn’t taken them in the first place. Keep in mind the language they used “there were no magnets BUT EVEN IF THERE WERE you can’t have your vehicle here.” In my line of work (attorney, now a judge) that’s the same as an admission. There’s an old saying, if you hear the sound of hoof beats approaching, the sound isn’t coming from a running zebra. It’s a horse (the most likely solution is the right one)
How was there no security cam footage of the tow company towing the van. A nice complex like that obviously has cameras in the parking lot.
Good im glad he came out good and got his van back.
has he file a lawsuit on the tow comp & the apartment complex cuz its called theft
If someone is stealing your van then you should defend it with your rifle, tow trucks included
I lived in an apartment complex and they said I couldn't have my tow truck in there I also refuse to do any jump-starts or tows out of there either rules are rules
Bad for the tow company. GREAT FOR THE PROPERTY MANAGEMENT. BIG UPS TO THEM.
not the tow companies fault. they only got called by the monitoring company to do the work...
Depending on how the rules are actually worded, it may actually be illegal for them to tow it, or any similar vehicle for being a "commercial vehicle".
I had a similar fight with an HOA, though I never got towed.
There bylaws banned parking "commercial vehicles" overnight.
Just one thing, "commercial vehicles" are a specific legal thing, with their own sets of regulations and licensing requirements for drivers.
Vans like these are not legally defined or registered as commercial vehicles, so any rule against "commercial vehicles" does not apply to them.
I can believe it's possible someone took the magnets down/stole them. Some unruly kids or some such.
Awesome name good luck with your family
It is time to pass a federal ban on this type of unconstitutional, unethical, and amoral behavior.
Tow Truck game even stretching into snatching cars from apartment complexes,
chain fast food joints and pharmacy's for expired tags (even if by one day).
Owner often has the tag, but yet to attach it. Be on alert for lookouts lurking about
parking lot's. Ponder why $$$ businesses decide on which tow outfit to do bizz wit?
Glad he won
the tow company stole the magnets in order to steal his car. crooks
So no commercial cars on the property, so how do workings coming to do work on the Apartments?
crooked af, hope he won
I have a problem with the management company subrograting the decision to tow. Particularly if the monitoring company profits from the tow!
It's like law enforcement subrograting the issuance of traffic tickets to a company that owns, installs and operates traffic cameras, profiting from each "ticket" they issue. Is this legal? I have no problem with a ticket from law enforcement, but a "ticket" from a private company is nothing more than a gnat flying around me.
Just because something may be legal, doesn't make it right.
The towing business is one of the last mafia style business. They operate on the fine edge of the law. Do anything you can to not have your car towed. They are also in cahoots with police dispatchers making prosecution difficult unless you hire a layer.
Bunch of bull shit to me he pays rent he should be able to park and not cover up the van making up their own rules
Look up the definition of theft, in your state revised code, taking something not belonging too you !
Maybe his neighbors stole the magnets.
His company will be booming now like
Someone took them off
Lawyer talks like Chuck McGill.
I whould move
Tow companies have the right to take any car at any time they so choose and nothing you can do about it but pay them or they get a free car .
Tow company has no rights to the private property of others, nor does the city or business with public parking...
A business that is open to the public may limit time spent on property - may bill for use of property for time over limit.
However, they should never tow the property of other's. Tow company should only be towing cars by owner request, are acceptable accident removel.
Point - until you have due process, it's thief of private property. That's a criminal act...
They would have met the double barrel of my shotgun.And I will shoot first and ask questions later.
@@DragoMusivini
Clarify - the owner of the property or the tow truck company who's employee took what was not his?
@@mrnobody8540 I believe what I stated is obvious.

To you -
The person who is the one who own the car was a sleep - so who would he shoot after the fact of the crime?
The tow company owner?
The tow Driver?
The ass who wrote the rules?
Are himself for believing he could trust a HOA?
This only make clear why you never buy/rent into a HOA....
So again who would you blame - yourself, the land owner, the property management company, the tow truck driver, the tow company or the ass hole that allow bullshit rules in the first place!
why people live in these association they just a pain
get with the times, in the fast pace we live in what is better
person going from point A to point B OR
point A to point B VIA point Z
Ban commercial get no service - clubhouse/other homeowners got tiles - sorry
Acts codes and ordinances are not laws only Congress can make laws.....
NO! Get an AR15 and tell them get my vehicle NOW!
Damn, glad somebody else said it too! I've been it hing to type it! I 😆
Tow company got a call from the monitoring company to do a job. They did. They didn't do nothing wrong. They were hired to tow a car with permission from the property decision makers. So they actually deserve to get paid for their service. It wasn't their property and they didn't have the decision to tow. They simply did a job they are hired to do by someone who had the authority to make that decision. If anything it falls back on the management company or the monitoring company and they did the right thing. Probably because they got a call from the news channel it the lawyer and they got scared but either way they ended up doing the right thing. Water under the bridge. It's over with. No over needs to sue anyone like state in these comments. It's a mistake that's been fixed.
SERIOUSLY, SCREW THIS GUY. He wants to be an exception to the rule. I live in an HOA. The rules are clear. No Commercial Vehicles overnight. Period. Why? Because without this rule, could be carpet cleaning or could be a lawn service, they will make noise early in the morning when they head to work. Sometimes checking equipment. Sometimes, having employees meet them at the residence who park their cars and take up spots. Employees that do not live in the HOA and don't care who have loud cars and blast their stereo at 6:30 in the morning because the HOA rules don't apply to them. I have to pay for and office. He needs to pay for an office and/or a secure place for his work vehicle. It is the cost of doing business. I do not care about anything else that is going on in his life. He needs to park his work van at his office or at a secure storage facility LIKE EVERYONE ELSE.
Is your name Karen? The only thing we learned from your rant is that you were stupid enough to join an HOA
Did you actually watch the video? The property owner let him move in if he covered the writing on his van with white magnets (0:50). He did that, but got towed anyway. That's a breach of this agreement and it's NOT in any way his fault.
@@photios4779 Great. Tow it. Fine with me.
@@gchsbus I can only hope that you never find yourself in a similar situation because someone made you a promise or signed a contract and then they broke it to your detriment. Meanwhile others who didn't care to know all the facts applauded the fact that you got screwed.
@@photios4779 I am sorry you are so upset about my comment. Again, this is a residential area. Not a place for clients to come visit your house. Not a place to work on someone's car. Not a place to park your lawn service and run your lawn mowers before you start work early in the morning. Not a place for your employees to park their cars. Not a place to park your work van, whether you work for a company or yourself. If I wanted to live next to an industrial park, that is where I would of bought a home.
IT FIGURES !!!! -------- FLORIDUH !!!!!!! I WILL NEVER NEVER NEVER LIVE THERE !!!
Buy your own house without association
You can
You will
This is the first time I've ever hear of some sort of management helping their paying customers I'm glad everything got sorted out easily
Just get rid of the association that simple
