If a truck is in the wrong via signs posted. That's one thing. But if it's extortion purposes.
Highway patrol had an interesting statement about no parking enforcement without signs being posted. Granted property owner has the say so. But signs really are necessary to save face for all involved. One technically can't get a ticket unless signs are posted. And without signs. How is one supposed to know????
To wake up to boots with no warning is extortion.
I got a ticket for no parking 3 years ago in my home city. Quite a few cars got tickets. Been going on for months. Because of a monthly fight event. And people actually pay. I fought mine. Because there's absolutely zero signs that say private property or no parking. The only sign posted. Says 5 mph.QuietStorm and pattyj Thank this. -
If I bought fuel, did the customary and polite thing and pulled forward so the next guy could fuel while I was inside paying, and I walked back out to find a boot on my truck, they should be GLAD that all I did was cut their stupid boot off and be on my way. Only other thing I can think of to do would be to fire up the fuel pumps again and drop my Zippo. I have no use for crooks, and I'll hit back a hell of a lot harder than you ever dreamed of hitting me. I'm not worried about your boot...shouldn't have been placed upon my truck.Mototom, bentstrider83, free spirited1 and 2 others Thank this. -

There's an opportunity in all of this...
Post a sign where someone that gets booted can see it. Use your wrecker to bring the offending truck to your nearby yard. Charge driver 1/2 of the 780 boot removal fee for towing and boot removal. Remove with torch or grinder or what have you at your leisure at your yard. When owner of boot comes onto your property.... you use that 2nd amendment to protect yourself and your property. Considering we are dealing with rational people here. -
With that said, some cameras do embed a exfil data in a very small frame so to speak within a frame or even GEO locates the picture taken anywhere on the planet.
In my day we did not worry about booting. They did not make em that big then. In fact I don't think they bothered to hire workers big enough to carry those righteous boots.
While I was composing a reply here, I realized that modular wheels can be made to order in which the holes themselves as presented in the Aluminum wheel forging will service a whole brave new industry in which the wheel itself contains a sort of lego modular construction so that a boot will be bypassed once you dumped the air from inside the tire and removed the same.
I have a mental image on how such a wheel may be constructed to defeat a boot simply by draining tire air, and unbolting and removing a specific rim section affected by boot and itself still road legal. The entire tire will be sacrifaced in the process. I have been working a machined tool that goes onto a complete wheel so that it rests inside a tire which itself is inflated properly. When there is a blow out the inner wheel will take the place of the destroyed tire and prevent the tahoe from flopping onto it's roof or worse.
It's a small expense to consider against a full vehicle roll cage and a total situation in which vehicles -
Someone needs to see who is putting them on and put a boot on his personal vehicle, and then his rearend.
RockinChair and PoleCrusher Thank this. -

If I lived by there I'd buy all the boot keys online I could find and just set people free lol.
