A few weeks ago our car was towed, for basically no reason. After worrying that Kabir was in a ditch, limbless for a few hours, he finally arrived home at 2:30am and about $150 poorer. He and some friends all parked their cars in a quiet side street while playing late night music at a local bar. When they emerged from the music, they discovered that three out of three cars had been towed. The reason/s remain mysterious.
Of course, the gospel has come up with an answer. As it turns out my mom just read an editorial about predatory towing. Apparently, there's a bill in the Oregon legislature about it, because towing companies go out and search for cars to tow. "I had no idea. Now they'll have to take photographs that indicate the law that's being broken. How about that. And they can't tow from lots without the owner's permission, unless a car is blocking other cars. There's justice."
