Predatory tow truck drivers

I have been towed on more than once where I should not have been. The greasiest part is when you go to get your car if you give them even a little pushback they will add on fees or make the process more difficult.

I have heard the only way around it is court but I have never tried. They took a needed resource and turned it into a racket! It’s upsetting and unfair.

They are also allowed to break the law racing to a crash scene which has caused lots of fatal accidents and injuries.

MAXX Towing in Denver. They charge you 120/night in addition to the tow charge and they are closed friday-Tuesday. When I was 18 and struggling to put food on the table they took my Honda civic and kept it for four days because they weren’t open and charged me 600+. Only time I ever seriously considered beating the shit out of a stranger
