      I have never seen an intelligent or mannered Avalanche driver. They are a sure indicator of trashy cargo.

    Unhinged maniac with priors, but I’m still hesitant to take the tower’s side because they’re never not total fucks.

      So instead of getting towed, now you have, (aggravated) assault, grand theft Auto, Hit and run, reckless driving, reckless endangerment and a civil suit by the towing company. That’s only what we can see in this video. That’s going to be a rude awakening.

        Tell me you spend too much time in the Fuck Cars bubble without telling me you spend too much time in the Fuck Cars bubble.

          My bubble is the sidewalk. You know, the thing you people constantly block 1/3 of with your private property, so that wheelchairs or strollers won’t fit past them anymore. Because fuck those peasants, right? But thanks for proving my point.

            Right, absolutely the same thing as this video, totally no loss of nuance along with an excess of extreme caricatures serving as a straw man.

              If you watch this video and think “oh I’m sure the towing service is at fault”, then yes, that’s your fucking car brain going full entitlement mode.

                So basically, a straw man is your answer and seems to be a core aspect of your current and future responses, got it.

                  Your so called straw man is the literal comment I was replying to, which you then felt the need to personally attack.

    WTF… Do people really think that they might get away with this? Or is the brain just fully shut down as they’re so full of adrenaline?

        One of my best friend’s thing is being restrained. He has a bachelor’s degree, is a teacher, and is very smart. But if someone tries to restrain him he loses his fucking mind. A cop tried to put handcuffs on him when we were in college and he punched the cop in the face, took off running across the campus with handcuffs around one wrist, jumped several fences, and got away. He reacts in similar ways any time someone tries to restrain him. Idk why he’s like that, and he doesn’t know either. He said he can’t think about anything except for getting away in those scenarios.

          My wife one time tried to playfully pin me and I freaked tf out. I totally get not wanting to be retrained. It feels like suffocation

          I can completely understand that. There’s a name for that kind of phobia, which I can’t remember right now, but I have the same exact thing. I have a Xanax prescription specifically for when I feel “claustrophobic” (it’s not actually claustrophobia; it’s a fear of being trapped and restrained, but people understand the idea of claustrophobia and I have forgotten the word for phobia of being restrained/unable to move).

          It’s significant enough that I have thought to myself how might I handle it if I am ever handcuffed, particularly with the cuffs behind my back. I would try to explain that I have a terrible phobia of this and I will have a panic attack, but I know that no cop is going to care about that. So I don’t know. Not much else you can do but flee.

            Definitely try to figure it out, because like you said, the cops don’t give a fuck. If you freak out then they’ll hog tie you, which makes it even worse.

      The latter. Your prefrontal cortex essentially stops thinking in rational ways, and more primitive parts of your brain are running the show. “Fight Mode”. Dude’s gonna have a hell of a reality hangover when bloodflow and electrical activity return to his front brain and he does a quick audit of what he just did.

    I remember someone joyriding in a tank many years ago. I can’t find that video.

    I think I remember some cop jumped on top and shot the guy inside.

      Had to have hit something also when the truck rolled off. Very lucky no one got killed.
