232 Tows
The city towed 232 cars early Tuesday on the first day of the winter parking ban.
Although the drivers face at least $235 in fines, fewer drivers were caught unaware than last year, when 248 cars were towed on the same night, according the Department of Streets and Sanitation...
So that's $54,000-plus in fines and fees, which covers about 900 hours of overtime costs. Considering that the last figure we saw was over $200 million, Groot's going to need a lot more tows.

All the fines and fees will be dismissed like Groot's
red light and speeding tickets. It's only fair.
Groot is always fair, right? Never a hypocrite.
Fucking ridiculous
$54K? Who you kidding? After the city tosses all the fines for poor people of color, they'll be lucky if they end up with 5k
"As a candidate, Lightfoot promised to reform the city’s fines and fees program, saying it was regressive and focused on generating revenue, not safety."
That's why the Dwarf's redlight & speeding tickets were dismissed.
It's not fair the city generates any income from the mayor.
"As a candidate, Lightfoot promised to reform the city’s fines and fees program, saying it was regressive and focused on generating revenue, not safety.
“The red-light camera program was sold to Chicagoans as a public safety solution, but it’s really been about revenue — and those fines fall disproportionately on people of color,” Lightfoot said at the time."
I understand now. Groot is a person of color.
The tickets her detail generated were about revenue, not safety.
Sooooo, the tickets had to be dismissed. She, a person of color, was disproportionately fined.
She is not responsible. The cameras are racist!!!
Except for certain economically challenged community members. Re-election is coming up so special dispensation will be bestowed upon the community. All others pay up.
Groot could hook a chain to Lord Jumbo and drag him for 10 miles.
I'd pay to see that
Anyone know what area was hit the hardest?
Eddie johnson was found sleeping in one of the towed cars with a rick james c/d playing in the back ground and a pile of panties on the seat next to him.
How much bullshit went into making that money— prolly more than its worth
Towing fees going way up for some zip codes after first of the year. You heard it here first $425 for unexempt-zip codes. Guess what zips are exempt to this fee hike? In fact some talk about reducing those fees for exempt zips. Jan1 target date for new fees.
Where did she find the police ro write the snow tow tickets?
"To me way hay tow them away"
How about towing all the junk cars out of the back of folks yards in "Da Hood"?
"FUMM" FUCK YOU MIDGET MAYOR. !
This has been in effect for decades. Screw these people for not looking at the signs. No one wants to be personally accountable for their actions. This is one of the reasons this country is in the state that it is in.
It probably cost more in diesel and administrative letters of impound that AngryToad Larri will collect, and she’ll probably offer a forgiveness/amnesty propgram and dole back out double the amount according to zip code under the Second Coming of Covids’ Stimulation Funds.
you forgot the tow drivers cut and the impound lot, all the money is pre spent.
Liberal eat Liberal...
We Are All Replaceable
No one is responsible, it’s someone else’s fault. Next.
