Messed up my shiate!

[{X}Echo419]

:rant: to berief; I was stopped yesterday for DWR(Driving While Ricy). the cop said I didn't have insurance when in fact I did. So he called a tow truck to get my car. I tried to tell him that it wouldn't go on the flat-bed. So the tow truck shows up and we put boards down cause' he thinks it'll go right up. He could not be more wrong! my car pic'd here

got caught on th front lip. The bumper was torn off the fenders and bowed out. So he finally gets on by backing it up still scraping very badly. My car is taken to my work and unloaded(a 2mile drive) for $85! I called the tow company and told them that they tore up my car. They 1st denyed it. Then Sent the driver up here to "fix" it. Yeah right. He deny's the whole thing and says it was already there. LIAR (not to be confused with LIRL). By the end of the day I had 2 tickets, lost $85 and had my car damaged. WTF!
So the owner is coming to "look at it" today.
Has anyone had this happen to you? What did you do? Thanks

when i towed my car, i just took teh front bumper off, you can also look into gettin some money back for teh police officer not doing his research propeprly since you have insurance...the insuerance thing happened to me, i just brought my insurance papers stating my effective date and that was thrown out

I know if you park in the wrong spot, and are towed the tow company is not liable for any damages during towing.

I hope for your sake it's different... I would of been arrested if I had to witness that (especially if I was getting towed for some bs).

hold on you were stopped b/c of what insurance? did you not have an insurance card?

if you have an updated insurance card he should of let you got immediately

[PSINXS]

will insurance reimburse you for the damages since u had it? can they hold the tow company responsible?

[5thgcelica]

i would kill some people.

still need details i would think if you in fact had insurance and the cop still had your car towed on top of that you told him a flat bed and he still had a normal wecker pull it i would say either:

a) insurance will have to pick it up for not sending more accurate records to the state w/ your info

b) state/county/city cop will have to pick up damages b/c there were prewarned and insurance was on the car

c) wrecker for fucking it up

I had this happen when i tried to get some tires put on my car and the bumper got pulled out and they tried denying it....finally got them to admit it and give me a busniess card and have them pay for damages. But then again thats a different situation.

[Halfwit]

what were u stopped forr, and did he still argue that u didnt have insurance after u told him that u in fact did?

[Nitro]

you are going to lose against a tow truck company sorry....just happened to me after my car got impounded the dumb shitz took it to the impound yard & forgot the dood opens differently & they fucked up my door & fender $1100 damage......there strongest defense is <it is not factory issued> it didn't come like that from the dealer!!! good luck tho................ :(

[civic95]

they are supposed to be able to tell if you have insurance by entering your tag # in the computer now. Let this be a lesson to still carry a current card though.

[dartingd]

so why'd u get stopped?

why does factory issued matter? Does that mean I can go to their shop and slash all the tire on their trucks and do something to break their towing equip. because they aern't "factory issued"?!
