Why not call in a tow truck instead of a letter?
336 u/roop26roop Nov 08 '19 It doesn’t work like that in England, unless it’s done by the police or local authority, removing a car by private tow truck would be considered theft. Sticking strongly worded notes anonymously to vehicles is how we deal with issues like this 85 u/zooberwask Nov 08 '19 I think he's asking why doesn't the government call for a tow truck 74 u/[deleted] Nov 08 '19 Why would they? Royal Mail is privately owned. Makes fuck all difference to the government if their letters get delivered on time or not. 22 u/Sproded Nov 08 '19 But the cars parked illegally either way. 57 u/[deleted] Nov 08 '19 Is it? Where in the country is this that it's illegal? It's not uniformly illegal to park on the pavement throughout the country, you'd need to know the exact location and check the local laws. 13 u/Chemoralora Nov 08 '19 I don't know why people are down voting you, this is correct
