Also 2 & 3 Toyota vehicles attached together with their bumpers in the back seats being towed, always Toyotas, with "IN TOE" painted on the rear vehicles window. Or 1/2 ton pickups with "stuff" piled in the back at least 10' high & up over the cab pulling a trailer loaded the same way.

Either photoshop skills are improving, or idiots are taking over.

Living in San Diego, you'd be amazed the kinds of things you see piled 15' high heading to Tijuana

Just enough to clear the overpass. The wooden garage doors are a favorite of mine.

New way of towing...



It is all about perspective. I wonder how much the tow truck driver had to pay to pick up his truck at the impound

I actually thought that was photoshopped and nobody could truly be that dumb. Once again I am amazed at the heights of stupidity that can be achieved in this country ...
My guess is those folks are also on People of Walmart.com

Washington state is where it occurred. Driver had no license and the UHaul was overdue for return.

Interesting on the license

I rented a U-Haul car hauler to move my Solstice and had to photocopy the front and back of license of anyone driving the tow vehicle

Something slipped through the cracks there or someone else is on the hook for the rental

He can display a "valid" license. Doesn't mean it hadn't been revoked.
