Phoenix City Zhang Zhaohong

On January 25th, I made an appointment with some old friends to have tea at the "New World Restaurant". The tea market was booming and there were no empty seats. After drinking tea, as they were about to return home, they suddenly heard that their friend's LUX car had disappeared in the parking lot. Everyone was surprised and hurriedly looked for it, but couldn't find it. Are car thieves so rampant in Tianhuari? At this time, the manager of the New World Restaurant was alerted and came to help. She found an extremely small advertisement posted on a lamppost in the area where the car was lost (the blue line area in Figure 1). When she went to take a closer look, she realized that it was a warning to non-exclusive users not to park here, otherwise they would be forcibly towed away.

View the parking location of old friends (Figure 1). At the far left end of the red line area, it is difficult to see the small warning). The parking area is very close to New World Shopping Mall. It is undoubtedly wrong for guests to park. Especially on weekends, the shopping mall is full of cars. Chinese people go to New World Restaurant to shop or drink tea. There are many people parking here. Most people don't know that this location is not part of the parking area of the World Mall. If you park correctly, you may be towed away.

We can only call the number on the warning sign, but it is already the business hours. However, it was just a recorded reply. At this moment, everyone was like a mouse trying to pull a tortoise, and they had no idea what to do. Suddenly, a large two-wheeled tow truck arrived. There were several people wearing tow truck company uniforms, looking carefully at every car in the parking area, seeming to choose the "fat pig" to tow. . We hurriedly went to inquire, and sure enough it was that they had towed the truck just now, and now they came back to continue towing, and the vacancies left by the tow truck would be filled by the wheels if there was an unknown crisis. After towing and towing, it became a problem for the tow truck company over the weekend.

I asked them where the car was towed and how to redeem it. I went to the tow truck company at the address they provided. There was a sign saying: If the working hours are over, you can call for help. After the call was made, we were told that we would have to wait for two hours and have to prepare cash or credit card payment to redeem the car. During this period, we saw two large tow trucks coming in. The place was surrounded by walls. Barbed wire. I also saw other owners renting taxis to redeem their cars. Others who had not arrived had to wait until Monday to complete the redemption procedures.

Finally, a big man came and asked for it. The driver's license and car keys were paid a hefty $255 before the car was handed back to my friend. A false alarm had to be spent on a lot of real money. On a whim, I checked the old calendar to see if it was really "not a good time to go out today"?

wrote an article to inform Chinese compatriots that they need to be careful of the traps caused by such small warnings in the future; at the same time, they appealed to New World Shopping Center. Customers' lost cars were like a fire at the city gate, which affected business. Some customers even came from afar to shop and drink tea from Tucson and other places. How do you get home if your car is accidentally lost? I hope the shopping mall can put up a big notice on this parking misunderstanding to prevent unscrupulous towing companies from benefiting in the long run and reduce the unwarranted loss of money to customers.
