Come on, man. You're a lawyer. Time to lobby to get to get a statute on predatory towing and an attorney's fee provision so people can sue over $250. This is what Florida does

No. Because I was on their property, in my vehicle illegally. They could have got me on trespass, breaking and entering. Plus I didn't carry a gun to go out drinking back then.

Is riverside the most hated business in Baton Rouge? I’ve never heard a single person speak in their defense and everyone who speaks about them absolutely despises them.

Probably. Their whole business model is taking your shite and making you pay to get it back.

Somebody can correct me but I don't think they do the standard "Hey my car is broke, can I get a tow to a repair shop" deal.

That was some of the dumbest legal advice I’ve seen on this site.

It's the most publicly hated one. But behind closed doors I'd bet a few dollars the Eaton Group is hated more.

They're the state's biggest debt collector and they service all kinda shite from department store credit cards to student loans.

I'm 100% in for people paying their debts and what not but they are pretty fricking harsh in their streamlined process to frick you right in the arse with no lube.

I'm careful what to say specifically b/c I know two things to be fact:
1. they block Tigerdroppings on their company network for a reason and it ain't productivity.
2. they will sue the frick outta ANYBODY.

The first time I ever needed to call for a tow I was sure it was going to be $250+ like Riverside charges. Nope...it was only about $100 and they took it right to the dealer. Insurance even covered $75 of it.

This is both hilarious and terrifying. No, you cannot shoot tow truck employees in the head when you are stealing your car back from their business.

Well yeah, the only time a customer interacts with them is when they have to pay to get their vehicle back. It’s not like they are knocking it out of the park on Yelp

Riverside has to be associated with organized crime or something.

They are absolute scum. Businesses that use them should be put on blast.

They towed me once when I was legally parked and I lost my shite screaming at them (I was hungover/still kind of drunk). The lady behind the counter told me if I didn't stop yelling she'd get the "boys" to come help her. I'm pretty sure that was a physical threat.

I get my car back, it has a huge dent on the center of the bumper right above where they hooked it up. It was clearly them and they denied wrongdoing completely and said it was there before they towed me. I couldn't prove it.

frick those people. I hope they all die.

no one's going to wage a war over a maximum of $250 (and that's exactly why their business is so good)



Exactly.

End of the day, its not enough money to exert any more energy for.

The scam is small enough not to invite large legal issues.

I’m just saying...if I had Hitler, Stalin and the Riverside towing owner in a room, and 2 bullets, i’d Shoot the riverside towing person twice.

Do they still do the thing where they charge and extra $50 because they claim they had to use special equipment due to the car being parked straight or some silly shite like that?

Someone should release a swarm of termites or ants into their yard.
Or something else. Snakes...spiders. Whatever
