    Lots of drivers seem to think they can park where ever the feel like. Care to elaborate a little more on why you got towed?

    I was towed in the day time behind my local Publix that said I can there and have been for 2 years. No one is allowed to tow from where I parked bc there is no storage yard to park within a 10 mi radius. Someone next to where I live saw my truck and hates when I get permission to park in my community by a boat dock. They called a private co from another county to take me out the lot. But everyone else stayed.

    That’s not fair. Publix is 100% free parking for big rigs.
     
    MartinFromBC and CheetahGirl Thank this.

    Yes and they know me so they didn’t call. The co didn’t have a license to tow me from my county. The police keep saying it’s a civil matter but the statute calls for criminal accountability if subsections aren’t met, as in my case.
     
    Brickwall Thanks this.

    :( A civil matter usually means you/someone was on private property. thats like me parking in my neighbors yard and getting bent because they had it towed...

    Yes it’s civil if private property but not civil if they don’t have a license to do so along with other criminal violations of the statute which call for a misdemeanor in the 1st degree and a Felony in the 3rd

    Has Publix called the towing company yet?
