oh i didn't know about that haha 2-3 days wow
i lived in crescent heights for 10 years and had cars parked out front for 2-3 weeks when I was on vacation lol ...
glad the neighbors didn't have beef with me lol but then I'm also presuming said car being towed didn't look so great

I've heard the city only enforces that on a complaint-basis. If it's not a piece of garbage and moves semi-regularly, people usually won't care that much. Abandoning a hooptie down the street is a different story though

I’ll own the deadbeat title then. That’ll give the assholes a reason to exist. I pay so much taxes, I am entitled to be a taxpayer burden.

And it takes the right complaint. I tried to get an asshole towed in my area and cpa told me to fuck off despite car being 1m from the curb, blocking the driving lane AND more than 72h.

This.

I called on a busted ass truck that sat in front of our community mailboxes for months... I figured it was stolen cause it didn't move literally all summer and was total piece of shit. Ended up being a house across the way as it then moved into their driveway for a bit, only to be back parked in front of the mailboxes again. But now they move it a couple feet every few weeks.

Well - they're still city employees, no one said they had to be any good!

Well, kinda like parking tickets - the reason the city of calgary owns the impound lot, is it allows them to dump the costs onto your license - so at registration/licensing time - you're paying the bill. City just interim subsidizes disposal then you pay 10fold at renewal.

Maybe said son will never afford to drive again?

City also calls the RO before they actually tow. Happened to me last summer, bought an extra car for kid to learn on, and at time we didn’t drive it for 3 or 4 weeks straight. Parked it across the street so it’s not my eyesore lol. City called me after someone complained and we moved the car 2 ft, they’re happy, problem solved.

Definitely lots of laziness to get to where it’s at.

This is why Vyacheslav invented his infamous cocktail.

I sold an explorer for next to nothing to a guy that picked it up with a trailer. Sometime later I got a call from the city that it was found abandoned and left it at that. Nothing came of it.
