Get over yourself 1st Amendment, now who's being a bully and mean. You sound like child throwing a fit. Do you actually think that your opinion means anything to me? (NO!) This man is the kindest man I have ever met, his family helped my daughter and I when no one else would. They didn't rip anything off from anyone. They didn’t drive your car, you did! They didn’t make you park in a tow away zone. YOU DID THAT. He is out there working hard making a living for his family, we all have life’s to live and jobs to do. He is just a Family man doing his job. We are all happy when a tow truck comes to the rescue. But mess up and have to pay the fine, well let’s just say you are probably the type person that commits a crime and then blames the officer for arresting you. ( It’s always someone else's fault for everything.) You messed up. Lesson Learned!!!!! Now stop crying. (And make sure you check my spelling and punctuation) USE SPELL CHECK Because we know you do. You told us. LOL

Also your boss got a lot of free time on his hands with all that dough. If he were kindhearted he would of paid you more so you wouldn't have to work two jobs. Two jobs two bachelors single mom no time to sleep. You need sleep to help your brain function so I forgive you because clearly your brain is not functioning correctly.

@ysandoval7 yes your employers are very nice at using money ripped off of innocent people. If they were honest obviously they wouldn't be overcharging. You got a nut lose working on tw bachelor degrees. Finish one and work on your typing and spelling. Trying for a bachelor and you can't even use spell check or a dictionary.

I am a single mother also working two jobs and working on a dual bachelors degree and I am employed by Atlas Towing. The owners of Atlas Towing are not heartless people, they are just the opposite of that they are just making a living for their Family and enforcing the towing regulation. I am going to tell you how kind they are : I had a very large Oak tree fall in my yard crushing my grandchildrens swing set, I had no money to pay to have this tree cut and removed and I came home to The owner of ATlas (MY BOSS)and his Wonderful Wife and my son all working hard in my yard cutting this tree for me. Because thats just the kind of people they are (HARD WORKING AND KIND). They also donate food to Angels Mexican Haven for our Military Cadents from Lackland AFB that the resturant feeds on Thanksgiving every year. No one see's the good deeds that they do every day. Donateing school suppies to the low income apts.. and so on and so on I could go on for days.. Years ago I parked right in front of a towing sign, in the parking lot at the Con's off of 410 next to a club. Lesson learned!!!!! So for the poor single mother you should have watched where you parked. Lesson Learned!!!!

Oh, and one more thing... To SAROX- The Constitution that both Democrats and Republicans, and no party affiliates, abide by stipulates that Congress is entitled to taxing, and dictating boundaries on commerce. Booya

Guys, don't forget... If you cash one of their check, write: "Cashed under protest" on the back, you are also entitled to interest if the money was taken, and held from you illegally. ;-) viva la raza.

No sympathy for the towing turds. It is nothing but extortion.

Is pre-k available for adults. If you are any state licensed company operating in violation of local code that company should be denied its license. I hope TDLR opens their eyes on this racketeering.

Puro pedo,it's easy to feel victimized if it involves personal space and dinero,pero let's get down to the nitty gritty. Regulation is key,for those unaware of the occupational code that regulates towing there is a statute that assigns responsibility to the municipality who regulates an ordinance for nonconsent towing in the same ordinance the municipality(the city)shall conduct a tow fee study if requested by a tow company.AHHHH ya ves,these tow fees studies have been requested since 2002 again in 2004 by bexar towing and again in 2006 by Atlas Towing.now the city is using a there's a no time limit for this study to be conducted! QUE MAMONES.Now for the poor soul with no food for her children park right and( bethoughtfull)eeh!para que entiendas mejor all one word translated means next time read the signs,and your childrens will feed well.MUCHAS GRACIAS bola de burros
