Recently, our local hospital has implemented a Dunkin Donuts within its main lobby... I have found that there is NO LINE there in the morning and have been going there to get my morning coffee (since the other Dunkin Donuts in town have a wait upwards of 20 minutes).
I normally park in the emergency parking area so I can run in and get my coffee, and up till this morning I have not had an issue. Today, my car was on the 'hooks' of a flat bed and they were moving it on when I came out. I tried to discuss this with the tow truck guy, even offering him a bribe but he REFUSED to take my car off the hooks.
I felt this guy was VERY rude to me and I'm thinking of pressing charges against the tow truck company...I was in that parking spot for less than 2 minutes and he had my car...it was almost like he was waiting for me...
do I have a case against him and my 100.00 impound fee?

So you knowingly and willfully disregarded the safety and health of potential emergency victims just so you can satisfy you desire for donuts? And you are asking us if you have a case?!!
I wish I was on that jury! Even if it was a civil trial, I would still ask the judge if we (the jury) could impose a jail sentence on you!

Ok, you have got to be kidding right?
Of course you have no case. You parked in a hospital emergency zone for a DONUT, and you would expect a favourable response....please.
I'm sorry, but I really do not sympathise with you at all.
Pay your fine and/or towing charge like a responsible adult who has made a mistake, and don't repeat the mistake.
If you like that donut shop, park around the corner or whatever. I'm sure your hospital has public parking for non-emergency patrons somewhere.

Dude - the answer is the same as when you asked this question like a month ago.
You cannot park in the emergency room parking lot to get your coffee. It's called "emergency" for a reason and a need for coffee is not an emergency.
You cannot "press charges" for someone being rude to you and you have no recourse to sue anyone.
Stop being a self-centered jerk.

no if you went to the hospital to go get coffee and dounts and parked in the emergency parking lot, because that parking lot is for emergencys only. they proberally have security cameras in the parking lot and realized that you parked there.
You took the risk you pay and as a lesson park in the guest parking instead of emergency parking
good luck with trying to come up with a case even though you dont have one

I'd say you don't have a case.
You parked in an emergency spot so you could get coffee. So ridiculous.

No, you are responsible. He was almost certainly doing just what you said, waiting for you.

Didn't you get beaten up bad enough when you posted this ridiculous question last January?
