What you're describing isn't "predatory towing."

It is though. People saying us having the tow company check it a couple times a day is predatory.

Ok. You’re a predator and we still think you’re a predator. Happy?

Sep 23, 3:44pm

Venting. It was an issue I had to deal with a lot when I owned property.

There are "predatory towing" laws. It's not what one person says it is or isn't

I think you need to look into this a little deeper. You'd be surprised. There's only 2-3 actual companies in the area.

Your last paragraph is not true. My daughter was towed out of her parking

I'd pay personally to release the car. This did happen in our Orem lot for emergencies or misunderstandings.

I'm glad you were an empathetic landlord, but you're the exception that proves

Do you remember what the cost was to those towed?

Nothing for us. $175 if I remember correctly to get it out. I'd have to pay $50 out of pocket (and I did) for them to.

The parking on the hill is great though. I loved it for football games. Easy walking distance for me an my family.

People are saying my situation wasn't predatory, but they did this. They patrolled.

From what I understand and was told, they had to have clear signage at each entrance and visible from parking spots.

Just say you donated the kickbacks to BYU Athletics and you are forgiven.

I've lived in Provo for 25 years and never been towed. You're right, just obey
