I think I'm going to buy a car boot from Amazon. Then I will park my car with impunity in all the places I'm not allowed to, boot up my own car, leave something that looks like a citation in a long envelope tucked into the windshield, and go run my errands. When done, I remove my boot and off I go. Every cop or scammer will think I've already been snagged by one of them and leave my car alone. Thanks for this idea!

Somebody deflated my tire once because they didn't like me parking in front of their house. When I got to the car they were standing up in their living room to see what I would do. Since I didn't have a way to pump it up and no time to get the tire off and get it fixed (they broke the valve) I just left it there. When I came back a few days later to get it sorted they came out of their house to ask why I didn't take the car away sooner.. Needless to say I told them that unfortunately didn't have time to get it fixed and was just there to get something out of the car and would deal with it later.

They would open them up every time in hope that there were valuables. They'd have no choice but to pay to scrap the cars themselves. Keep putting more cars there until their business implodes.

In high school they would charge us $5/month for a parking pass (back in the late 1970's that was quite the hit to a high school student). Most students laughed it off until the school district had the village police department come out and issue parking tickets. A parent did some research and found out that the land that the parking lot was located on was not owned by the school district so they had no authority to be issuing paid for parking passes, or to give authority to the police to issue tickets. The farmer who did own the land that the parking lot was on ended up getting involved. He sued the school district for all of the parking pass money and issued permits to the students for free. If school administrators wanted to park there, they had to get a parking pass that they paid for. There was a row that was meant to be reserved for teachers, when they didn't pay he parked agricultural equipment behind their vehicles so they were effectively trapped in their parking spots.

When I was in college these things were just coming out. My school was in a city where the city used to see booting students cars as a big revenue source. I kept a portable acetylene torch in my trunk and had to cut a bunch of them off. I had a piece of fire board to stick between the frame and the tire and it took less than a minute to cut through the lower arm. It was mild steel so the cutting head sliced through it real quick. I couldn't have been the only kid destroying them because after a couple of years they stopped using them. My guess is they ran out of them.

I think we estimated that he lost 300 dollars that night. There was a waffle House across the street and the bright light of the cutting torch didnt bother anyone.

I recall hearing how the French hit back with parking authorities, ( not scammers) clamping cars. People started carrying a tube of super glue with them and would fill up the lock on any clamp they saw. When the authorities came to unlock them, they couldn't and would have to cut off their own locks, or incur even more wrath from the irate motorist, ( who hadn't actually done it, and had paid their fine). Chaos, but the French have developed protest into a fine art !

Each night you can walk around and see a bunch of cars booted, and then of course my own car ended up booted when the registration was one day expired. They're forcing tenants to pay $75 to have access to their vehicles again. Going to grab myself some tools to remove these rather than be extorted to be able to use my own personal property.

I just removed a boot back in September 2023. I did it with bolt cutters. Couldn't cut off the lock so I cut off the metal holding the lock in place, removed the lock that I'd already busted up, and then the pin holding the boot in place.. Took about an hour, but now I could do it in less than 10 minutes. A scam tow company did this to me at my son's apartment complex even though I was parked where told by the apartment complex and entering the codes , etc. that are requested. Couldn't contact them on a Sunday. Only option was to cut or pay via credit card via scanning their code on my phone. Got a couple of letters from a group of crap lawyers. Responded and threatened to sue them in small claims court and have not heard back since. Their pattern of abuse was obvious after looking at reviews of Capital Towing in Dallas, TX.

True story, in 1982 I worked for the City of Columbia MO. When the tow driver showed up to pick up a booted car it was gone. Shelly the meter maid went to verify where she booted it and indeed it was gone. Police looked up the address based on the license number on the ticket and went there. Car was sitting in the driveway. Owner said he knew nothing about the boot, just went out to his car and drove away. They learned later that he was a locksmith but had no evidence he wasn't telling the truth.

This sort of highway robbery happened to one of my cousins traveling out of state to visit family for the holidays several years back near Cleveland Ohio, if memory serves me correctly. The supposed company who installed the boot on his dodge ram pickup, wanted $1500 to remove the boot, little did they know, he had just brought a dwalt cordless grinder and some grinding wheels as well as some cut off wheels, as well as other stuff on Black Friday. Not only did he cut through that boot in less than a minute, but also photographed the surrounding area, noting that there was no signs indicating no parking zones, and believed he was targeted because he had out of state tags. Fast forward a week or so later, he gets a letter in the mail threatening legal action for the cost of the boot and so on, took him to court, and the person who installed the boot didn't show up, so the judge had no choice but to dismiss the suit. And no, my cousin was never targeted again, that I'm aware. 😊

Scammer: boots the car, leaves a ransom note for $200... Me: removes the boot and texts a ransom pic to the scammer for $40 to get his boot back.

If you do that, your best bet would be to report the scammer's illegitimate car boot to the police, and then tell them when/where the scammer will be going to try to get his boot back.

Now, about that AD you got us watching BEFORE the video. I used to always watch Dr. Who ! ... LOVED it! . I myself loved the 4 th Doc.

My ONLY regret is that Disneys gonna touch it , & that ruins it for ALL of US ! how truly SAD. i liked the spot until i saw the 'Disney' logo , then i saw it was DOCTOR WHO .... ! ... ? .... man , that was ONE hell of a LET DOWN : (

Cost of wheel lock clamp: 50$ Cost of tubular impressioning tool set: 20$ Sounds like you can even make money out of these scammers...

You would need the proper Key to sell the boot. Or a new tubular lock and the right tool for thightening it.

Correct me if I'm wrong. The boot gets put on the wheel. ( by the clamper ). The car driver gets prosecuted if/for tampering with the boot . But an bystander ( LPL ) could remove the boot. " i don't know him ..... "

We had a big generator and very large angle grinders on the back of the truck. We stood there looking up and down many times until the curiosity why it was put on in the first place eventually won. But then, days later, we still wanted to grind one of those things. Drove around a bit but couldn't find any. You did the right thing :)
