Unhappy RS2.5 Being towed by rear tires in Santa Rosa

Anyone here recently turn their RS into a shop. I saw it being towed down 101 by a tow truck and he had it up and 2 wheels. Hope it wasn't anyone here.

Oh yeah, it was white w/ a big wing in the back.

Was it wearing a carbon hood & gold/bronze wheels? if its the one that i am thinking of he got sent to the Ref. & told that if the car was seen on the road agian it would be impounded.( this is all second hand info)
It was just a matter of time. One of two things happened. Broke down or impounded. More like the second happened. More Santa Rosa BS profiling.

Vince,

ask for one
don't say hopefully
if they show up without one, tell them to drive the **** back and get a flat bed

dont' let them ruin your car

or call ahead and ask for a flat bed and say why
i'd go with option #2 beause its more nice

I just realized there's 2 more SR people on here that I haven't met. You guys interested in coming to a SRKK meet in 2 weeks?

when I had my car towed I demanded a flat bed. Took a few minutes longer, but they took care of it.
