Well, I don't park illegally. So I'm not sure how that will happen.

Thanks though

Maybe not intentionally, ... or not at all. But unless hundreds, if not thousands of people are just coordinating the same lie, you will park one day in a spot you think is "legal" only to return to an empty space.

I can't wait for that day and I will know when it happens because I will feel the disturbance in the force....and I will smile.

As previously stated, Riverside tows people who aren't parked illegally.

They towed my roommate for parking in a legal spot in our apartment complex a few yrs ago. His car was in the shop, so he was using a loaner car and did not get another parking sticker from the office yet. While they were towing him we showed them documents that he was a resident. They didn't give a shite and actually told him their offices didn't open back up til midnight, so they charged him the $70 extra for a day. This all happened at like 10pm.

Trust me that doesn't stop them. They tried to tow me from Zippy's once when I was in the restaurant placing an order. My car was in that space legally, and was there less than 5 minutes before they started hooking up to it.

That was years ago, and we haven't been back to that establishment since.

IIRC, the state sets the max towing fees at like $115-125. You pay less than that at LSU (IIRC somewhere around $60 for your basic tow). Riverside fees for being towed for less than a day are typically between $200 and $300. How does that work?

They have been caught CONSISTENTLY overcharging by LSP, towing cars that were properly parked, moving cars from good spots to bad ones, and then starting the video of the tow, staging cars, etc. This has been happening since I started LSU in 2002, and probably long before that. The fact is that they consistently break the law and get away with it. They are more than likely paying a bunch of people in the government off, or are directly related to someone important. There are way too many legitimate towing companies that do none of these illegal things to continue allowing Riverside to conduct business. What they do is illegal, and they do not get penalized for it.

frick, I went and took my truck back twice when they were staging cars at the Circle K on Brightside


Eta: I was also towed once out of Southgate Towers parking lot. Problem was that I lived there, and had a sticker. It took forever for them to give my truck back, and I had to get a ride to the place

Eta #2: I got towed from ECA once, and didn't have a problem with it at all. Sure I was unhappy, but I knew that I parked illegally, so I had no basis to be mad at anyone but myself. I walked up, paid, and got my truck back. Easy peasey
