Call your legislator (the Maui area code is 808)
Sean Cruz suggests that the State of Oregon outlaw predatory patrol towing by those weaselly tow truck operators. I'm down with that. And I urge the Portland City Council, which is no doubt busy at the moment drafting an ordinance condemning evil generally, to get on the ball and write up some "safety-related" ordinances (wink, wink) to the same effect. Or at least pass a resolution urging the Salem crew to do the same right after they pile out of that funny car.
