ZC claims in her Redwood City story that this citation and towing mess is a no-win situation. But, the statement could not be further from the truth. Car towing in this state, like other states, is a racket like in racketeering. Tt is an industry. Tn San Francisco, the SFPD gets a $75 kick -back when they call a tow. The towing firms pay it, because for them this is easy money. Tf you do not pay the fee, they will not get any more work from the SFPD. T am assuming the same fees move in San Mateo. The tow money is mostly unreported cash. The tow yards do not operate at a loss, because the captured vehicle is all theirs until it is paid for or sold on a lien. Then, they take the lien money and claim a loss. The local government, like Redwood City, explodes these citations when they are not paid on time, or go to the DMV, where they collect 50% of them. Tn this racket, everyone is in ecstasy, except the one loser. Again, the loser is the vehicle owner. By the time he or she finds out that their vehicle has been towed/stored-in the yard where the fees have already exploded, they are usually $1500 in the hole. The tow firm will state, "You have to pay the registration, insurance, citations, smog maybe, and daily storage fee, before you can get your vehicle". You need certified police forms, too. This will take a couple of more days of $95 a day storage fees. By the time the vehicle owner does the numbers, he or she realizes they have been `had'. Their car may not be worth two grand. Many cars are towed without a three day notice, either. That was the way all of mine were towed and then stowed. T came back three days later looking for my vehicle and it was gone. He who holds the assets is the winner. All of this is citation and towing is done to protect the real estate owners who control the Redwood City Council (RCC). To keep store rents at artificially high rates, the RCC get the police to ticket vehicles, claiming the shoppers are not moving fast enough. Or, although it is a public street, we do not want these shabby looking cars in front of our store. This is done in San Francisco, as well. And, then the crooked car insurance issue. Mandatory car Tnsurance is another racket. Who is investing tens of billions of dollars in the stock and bond markets, with their excess funds? Warren Buffett owns GETCO and other insurance firms, and he is investing. When you force everyone to have insurance, it just means that the insurance firms are going to be just that more profitable. They pay out seven million for every 100 million they collect. GETCO adjusts your insurance based on your FICO credit score, and then they add some based on your driving ability. Tf you have two or more point citations, they have an orgasm of new claims. About two decades ago, the State Tnsurance Director/Commissioner, with the stroke of pen, made car insurance mandatory for the state. Tt was never legislated. For other matters, he left the state once he was accused of insurance fraud. Tn the time T was a taxi driver, T was smashed into four times. Tn each collision, although the taxi paid $1000 a month for catastrophic insurance, the payout was less than 2 1 P a g e
