Pacific Towing

I use pacific towing last night when my vehilce broke down. The service and advise is good. but the eta is little long. I have to wait extra 20 mins

If it were possible to give them 0 stars…
Here is where my car was parked:

Pacific Towing and the owner of this location (this driveway is private property apparently) were in violation of SFPD’s rules:
1. When a tow car firm removes a motor vehicle parked on public or private property, the tow car firm must remove the motor vehicle to the nearest garage or storage facility under the tow car firm’s control within the City and County of San Francisco, unless otherwise approved by the Chief of Police.
My car was towed from SOMA across town to 834 Divisidero (
) even though they have this SOMA location. The person answering the phone lied saying that rule only applies to public tows.
2. Before a car can be towed from private property, the property owner must post a visible sign (at least 17“x22″ with 1″ letters) saying that parking is prohibited and that vehicles will be towed at the owner’s expense. CVC 22658(a)(1)
Take a look for yourself…
(the sign is a no smoking sign).
After I raised hell with the security office of the property, a week later the property owner painted the curb and added clear signage. Pacific should learn the basic rules of their business, wrongly towing someone’s car and charging them (in both time and money) is tantamount to stealing.

Yep, it seems that they spy and wait for your car. They even know where you went and how long will you be absent. I am going to check if they violated any legal requirement though like posting a phone of enforcement agency (not only towing company) on the parking sign. Bastar-​s.

never ever, ever, ever park your car at the mcdonalds on haight because you’ll end up here.
and that’s not fun.
