better question is, why do people think Walmart is a truck stop.

said screw them never tried again.Studebaker Hawk, chitaylor, Eldiablo and 4 others Thank this. -

Drivers are an easy mark. Most nowadays can’t look you in the eyes because they are afraid.
You will read stories about drivers getting in to accidents and don’t take pictures because the other party is irate or the cop tells the driver to stay in the truck. And they do. Cop just screwed you, hand.
These bottom of the line ambulance chasing lawyers love drivers because most drivers are too fat and stupid to cover their arse. It’s easy money. Stupid driver is going to roll over and let you pork him without resistance.
So these tow truck clowns have a racket going. You guys are talking about leaving bad reviews. They don’t care. Business is good. There will be other easy marks tonight. Perhaps you guys should try something else.
Like @Chinatown mentioned, these tow truck drivers dictating who you can talk to and who you can’t? Are you guys seriously that weak? Enjoy the beef injections. Six back quiet. -
get it and go or find a grocery store big enough.
sleeping there is the problem.chitaylor, 88228822 and truckdriver31 Thank this. -
I can see a $500 boot fee. No way $3000 or $8000.
You would have to be goofy to pay that much. Complete extortion.
I would have immediately called the police.Swedish Chef, TokyoJoe, JadeLove and 4 others Thank this. -
True, but not sure if he was delivering the Coke products to that particular Wal-Mart or somewhere nearby. But there was one time I was needing a prescription filled on the road, I chose a Wal-Mart ahead of me because I knew I could at least fit in their parking lot, a sinus infection just got the better of me. I have seen signs in some of their parking lots and have respected it, but what about just overall shopping or getting a prescription filled where you're in and out like a regular customer and not taking a 10 hour break?truckdriver31 Thanks this.
