Truck owners are blocking Tesla super chargers in protests

47. For better or worse our local towing services are quite aggressive...

... and their impound fees are high. They're also friendly with the cops.

If I drove a Tesla and happened to find the local the charging station blocked by some stupid truck, I've no doubt a quick call to the towing company would get an immediate response by a big burly tattooed tow truck driver swinging a heavy hooked chain, and zero response by the cops unless someone was on the ground and bleeding.

As a teen, one of my kids parked a family car where he shouldn't have, it was towed, and few days of impound fees would have been more than the car was worth. I was almost of mind to let the towing company have it.

But it's better here than a town south of us where the cops and towing companies were conspiring to steal trucks and SUVs, the nicer the better. The police chief himself was driving an SUV that had been illegally taken and retitled.
