impounding their cars is an unfair hardship

But it's NOT too much of an unfair hardship to impound them on the second offense. Typical lib reasoning.

Thing is, you don’t need a license (or insurance) to drive a car. You need a license to drive a car on public roads with the rest of us.

Actually, there is now (in California) the unofficial 'gifts' to the officer, known in Mexico as the Morditha (SP?) and the counties and cities cut themselves in for a slice of the action too.

One has to pay a .gov processing fee to get the vehicle out of hock. It was, and my numbers could be off, about $99 in most jurisdictions.

Marysville, CA is notorious for towing on the slightest pretext....

I of course banned any beer/pizza/KFC/ from any tow company at the Choir Practices I organized.

I could always predict who would be getting fired next via checking the tow log. The guy who was the 'big producer' would always be the next to fall.

Something to do with selling your morals....

This is great for folks who have a suspended license and/or no insurance. Just say you have nothing, and put on a heavy accent! “My name Juan Gonzales”...”Ok, Senor Gonzalez, please don’t let it happen again. Buenas dias.” The rule of law is SOOO inconvenient—so why comply?

[Damifino]

Yeah, we agree. The purpose of this SF law has nothing to do with any of the situations I listed. This “open borders” business is all about engineering elections.
