Today, my car broke down. I pulled to the side of the road to call a tow truck. After waiting what seemed like hours, the tow truck showed up, and then ran into the back of my car. FML

Today, my car was towed. After taking a cab all the way to the lot for $45 and paying the $250 fee to get my car back, my car broke down in the impound lot and needed to be towed to the nearest shop, where it took another $200 to fix, and $50 for the towing. I still have a 3-hour drive home. FML

Did you need to call a tow truck for the tow truck?

Hope you have insurance! It clearly wasn't your fault anyway so if not they'll have to pay for it.

His fault so you should not have to pay for those damages....

I'm not surprised this happened at all. People from Ohio can't drive.

same thing happened to me when I blew the engine out of my car. I had it towed to my neighborhood garage, and when he was unloading it off the flatbed, he somehow managed to rip my front bumper right off!
