TowZone Posted August 26, 2022 Share Posted August 26, 2022 Why would any Tow Company/Tow Operator allow someone to be this close to the action? Control Your Scene Wake up this could easily be a safety hazard which could even lead to a legal action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rreschran Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 Note: While on-scene safety is always a priority consideration. tow operators have no authority to order or control another person's actions. Quote Randall C. Resch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoBdaBenO Posted September 3, 2022 Share Posted September 3, 2022 It is my scene and as stated we may not have actual authority. However, we do have the power to request someone move to a safe distance or location. should something occur and that person be injured then the tow truck company and operator are going to be at fault. That is even when the person has been advised of the danger. It is your scene to control and if that requires getting law enforcement involved then so be it. Body Cams are something we a highly considering though we have never had this issue arise. The officers did alert us on an arrest tow a couple of days ago that they had a heckler. Someone driving up on them with a Camera and attempting to provoke an action. We all need to have a clear plan of action just in case one of these persons show up.
