My husband is a tow truck driver, and if you tell him you need gas, he will stop on his way to you and get gas, Its gonna cost you more than 30.00 tho. The end result is your the dumb ass that didn't stop and get gas knowing you were almost out. Stupid is what stupid does. Tow trucks don't run for free..
I carry a 2gal. gas can on my tow truck with gas in it always I get at least one "out of gas" call a shift... if you had called the company I work for then it would have cost you $25.00+ the cost of the 2 gals of gas. I have never heard of tow trucks not having a gas can on it that was just bull the cops told you. how ever since your car was blocking traffic and the police called us to remove your car it would NOT have to be impounded unless you had broke the law and were arrest or had no way to pay for service. so even if the police called and I showed up I could have got you back on your way home for just that $30.00 you had on you. all I can say is it sounds like you got jacked by the police and that tow company.
Running out of gas has to be one of the most stupid things any driver can possibly do.
Unless, of course, the gauge went out.
And that happens so often, right?
