  11. That's a lot of motorcycles that are being towed there. It means many are parking illegally. That's a great post and photo.

  15. Oh oh! I hate that! I've had a car towed once. It was such a traumatic experience that I vowed it would never happen again and it hasn't!

    Many of the towing companies here seem to be somewhat crooked and make a practice of charging outrageous prices to get a car out of storage. I don't understand why someone doesn't do something about that!

  16. You’ve gotta watch out when you park in a No Parking area. Those tow trucks will get you every time. Nice capture. genie

  20. This is a common sight in Delhi too. Interestingly, people never seem to learn from such actions; they invariably choose to park their vehicles in unauthorised spaces.
