A Terrible Tow
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 лют 2025
- The plaintiff says the defendant towed his pickup truck and damaged it. He claims the defendant won’t take responsibility for it, so he’s suing him for damages. The defendant says the plaintiff blocked someone’s driveway, so the flatbed tow was warranted. He insists the plaintiff inspected the truck when he retrieved it and all was fine.

How does NOBODY have ANY documents for court? I'd show up with a briefcase full of relevant AND irrelevant (just in case) paperwork lol
😆
Unless there's something to hide 🫣
Just like Maxine Shaw

That is one nasty neighbour. On holiday and still care that your driveway is blocked.
I wonder if he could've asked the neighbor to share the ring camera recording of the tow, that would've cleared up any possibilities that they loaded his truck inappropriately.
That's a great idea!
The judge yelling at litigants for not bringing evidence is my ASMR.

I do appreciate that the judge lets them tell the whole story. Judge Judy tends to cut them off from giving important details
I'm truly surprised JM was so easy on the defendant for not having documentation of the tow. They have a responsibility to document everything(damages noted before tow, etc) to cover themselves in these events. It's awfully suspicious this defendant didn't keep any paperwork, especially considering the plaintiff contacted him regarding the damage the very same day. He had to know this could end up in court. Very suspicious.
Because it’s on the Plaintiff to prove it happened his way, once the Plaintiff does then it’s on the Defendant to prove it didn’t happen that way or prove that even if it did happen that way the Plaintiff waived away the right to blame them for it, except for gross negligence or they rigged it to temporarily hide it.
they were probably busy that week and did not keep up on all the paperwork for all the tows and it was not a police tow situation where the courts have documentation , it was a private homeowner calling the tow company .
The burden of proof is on the plaintiff tho, it would of been nice for the defendant to bring evidence but it's up to the plaintiff to prove his case
Burden of proof, and the plaintiff is...less than knowledgable. To be kind to that kid. He doesn't seem situationally aware.

He was rushing out to get that fresh shave but left all of the paperwork at the office. You can still see that white chalk outline by his beard.
I came here curious about that. I even wondered if the beard was fake. 😂
@@robowaffler6674I think it's a beard weave!
As an auto tech with over a decade of experience I’m 100% sure the tow popped his tires. The heat shields underneath rot out all the time or the shop that used a “forklift” to move his truck damaged them. If he just had a little more proof.
Wrong it would have been front 2 tires
I towed for years with J hooks on the A frame [f/wd hooks down] iv'e went under cars w/ rear w drive putting veh. in nuetral to make it roll and used clamps in front never cut a tire.@@MWAmos
Yes you are right but He also admitted that he drove the car, a block or two, which breaks the seal around the rim of the tire .
It was forklifted BECAUSE it had flat tires
You're not 100% sure of anything but your name. And that's only if you've seen your birth certificate. You weren't there.
Well, that neighbor is a piece of work.
I’m gonna miss hearing the stories from JM and JJ probably more than the cases. 😢
The stories for sure will be missed but the two judges whose only real claim to fame is how loud they can yell and how rude and obnoxious JJ can be. I do believe Judge Milian can easily out screech JJ. My ears hurt after Peoples Court!
@@skeetsneufeld6305so stop watching
First of all when you release a vehicle from a tow yard, you ALWAYS sign a release form to protect the company from liability such as being sued etc.
Second, using a flatbed tow truck you can use the method of strapping all 4 wheels down or using chain hooks on the frame to secure the vehicle. Initially you hook the vehicle with chain hooks to the front control arms or subframe to pull the vehicle on the bed.
This is information coming from a current tow truck operator.

this happened i think while taking car out of yard,
@@Palmstreet-u7x only way to damage the front end of a car on a flatbed or wrecker is if they dragged it or the car is too low or the bed isn’t low enough when pulling the vehicle up on the bed. But for a wrecker the wheel lift can damage the front end and underneath the vehicle if the operator isn’t operating the wheel lift properly,
The vehicle owner pays, shows proof of insurance & reg & signs for the release, B4 even seeing the condition from the tow.
There’s no way the plaintiff would not have noticed two flat tires on the SAME side of his vehicle. As soon as he sat in the driver’s seat, he would have realized that the vehicle was more-or-less “leaning” to one side. Also, who picks a vehicle up from a tow yard, and doesn’t even bother to walk around it once? Ridiculous
There are a couple problems with what you're saying, one your car isn't automatically going to be leaning enough for you to notice, two there may have still been some air in both of those tires until he actually started driving on them, that has happened with many punctured tires, he says he drove at most half a block before he noticed the tires were both flat, and you and I might both walk around our vehicles and inspect every inch of it but not everyone thinks like that or would do that, that doesn't mean that the tow company isn't responsible for damage that they caused, in fact this is more likely than not that this tow company did cause the damage, just the fact that the defendant brought in absolutely no paperwork to show how the tow was conducted is enough to show his guilt. He knew that if he brought in the paperwork showing how the tow was conducted it would hurt his case! he didn't forget his paperwork that was done purposefully.
Thanks I agree!
@@jesnrbrt4evr11 agreed. It took me literally driving 5 blocks one time to realize I had a flat tire. Air leaks out gradually, not all at once.
@@al3220 If the tow had punctured the tires, it would have been leaking air from the Saturday they towed it until he picked it up on the Monday. So probably 36 hours of leaking.
Yep
Judge Milian, I'm really surprised at you running out of gas several times that's unacceptable smh.. A lady with your wisdom and class i can't grasp the concept of how you would do this..
The plaintiff has a superman jawline.
I noticed that to.
👀 the thumbnail I don’t even know what the case about 😅
Could’ve combed his hair. People drooling over mediocre hygiene because he has “looks” 😂
He is awesome
Sweetie, he ain't looking for you. That man is happily gay 😅
He was pissed he was towed and had to pay...drove off like speedy gonzales...hit that construction and tore up his tires and the underbody of his truck....tried to blame the tow.
BYE!😂
I'm so embarrassed for the defendant. As a business owner, he should have been over-prepared.
Look at us 🏃🏾♀️ over here for the People’s Jeffery Dahmer 😅
I’m glad I’m not the only one 😂
This took me out 😅😅
His accent is giving me Hardin from After vibes.
I’m just glad someone said it 😂
I was looking for this comment!
Omg he does look it !!! Now I can’t unsee it 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I don't doubt for one minute that the tires went flat while in the "care" of the tow company. I used to work for a tow company and the drivers including the owner would mess up cars all the time while they were improperly loading them onto a flatbed, towing dollies or anyting else. We have flat tires, body damage and anything else you can think of simply because it was not properly loaded or unloaded correctly. Then the drivers would always lie saying they picked it up that way or they don't know how it happened it must be the customers fault.
i wonder why 99 % of these tow truck drivers look as if they work for the mafia
I know exactly how this happened. If the black top is gone from the street, there is a drop in the driveway. That's how the under plates got damaged. He went straight, instead of on an angle. It also means there's about a 4 inch drop on the sides of the road. If he got too close, to that, it will rub the tires. And if there's a bar sticking out of the concrete...pop goes the tires on the passenger side.
Sounds good but its a tacoma...not sitting low
UNless you have a Google maps picture of said residence...its ALL Yadda Yadda chum peace
Sounds legitimate to me.
the clue that gets the tow driver off the hook is the fact that both the damaged tires are on the same side of his pick up truck . to me that means the tire damage happened when the truck was being driven and the plaintiff ran into or over something in the road that damaged both the front tire and the back tire as he drove in a straight line .
The blacktop was removed from the tow yard’s street not where he parked. If I understood correctly.
If I get in my car and it doesn't feel like it's sitting right, I get out and look at my tires. As soon as I start driving I can feel a flat tire.
I can even feel if one tire is low. There is no way he wouldn't notice two flat tires on the same side. I am convinced he rubbed against a curb on his way home.
The plaintiff reminds me of Napoleon Dynamite. 😂😅
Yip as soon as he says he doesnt have evidence i immediately start smiling and jm goes off with wisdom. Love her so much. Theres no excuse. 😂
Plaintiff Talks like he does not move his tongue while talking.
I knew a Frog that never parked in the correct places. He was always getting TOAD!! 🐸🤣😎
😂
The plaintiff said that the tires were 6 months old, but the picture he provided looked like tires were almost done. If you hit a pothole hard enough, that will cause the side wall to pop. If he drove it flat, there was a good chance he could have damaged the heat plate under the truck.
Plaintiff definitely related to Jeff Dahmer 😂😂
I’ve been a tow truck driver for the last 15 years and I know the tow company didn’t damage his tires. Whether it was on a flatbed or a wheel lift and dollies there’s no touching of the outer sidewalls of the tires. It’s even more of a bogus lawsuit because it was on the same side. The guy bumped a curb or something when he drove out of the lot or down the street. The heat shield he’s talking about wouldn’t be damaged on a tow truck either. Those rust out or bolts come loose and they sometimes rattle. If tow trucks damage tires and other parts of a car they would all be out of business quick. Even if the wrecker driver was negligent the sidewalks of the tires wouldn’t have been touched putting it on or off the truck. Negligence usually causes damage to bumpers or bending a control arm or tie rod when they hook it up wrong. The judge made the right decision on this one at least. I’ve watched a couple others that involved tow companies and I didn’t agree with her verdict against the tow company. It’s hard to understand how something may or may not happen if you don’t know how to operate a tow truck.
LOL....Plaintiff kept serving his profile to the camera. Okay, we see you, sir 😂😂
I am convinced plaintiff showed up for his 15 minutes of fame, hopefully some agent watched the show and we will see plaintiff in some Netflix show in the near future.
Someone has a crush 😂
LOL 😆 😂 🤣 😹
Dahmer is already available 😂😂😂

Great judgment JMM, the Plaintiff HAD to notice 2 flat tires immediately or he's a dork.
The leak does not let air out in one whoosh. It leaks out slowly, especially if it’s sitting still.
The story about the gas took me out 😂
The Plaintiff could improperly hook me up anytime.
You kidding? He acts and looks like he's 10 years old
Agree
😂😂😂
The side wall punctures are usually caused by hitting a curb especially if the curb is jagged. Or of course by vandalism. I doubt by towing.
The plates underneath being described are heat shields. Way back in the day when I purchased and drove old used cars. The heat shields sometimes would rattle or fall off. If they couldn’t be tightened any longer. I would just have the shield removed. Making sure not to park on grass or leaves
You can see the front tire that had the bubble in effect on. You could see that he ran over the tire with the rim, cut a hole in the tire, the tires were damaged because the idiot after he picked it up, chose to drive a block you never do that unless you have a run flat, which being, it’s a Tacoma, it’s a truck, so it’s too heavy to have a run flat so the driver is at fault because he ruined his tires and probably his rims too
Jeffery Dahmer is that you👀
I truly think this was the tow company.
the airport story 😂😂 that’s me, i need to do better
The judge & her hubby are so cute!
Idk how he expected to get a refund from a tow where he was parked illegally
He's one of those people that think they deserve everything that they ask for
Plaintiff looks like a serial... nah never mind 🤫🤐🤦🏾♂️
Me. Smith isn’t lucky….he’s Blessed! 😃👍🏻
Honestly, there was no way the Plaintiff was going to win. That's probably why the Defendent didn't bring anything. Plaintiffs rarely win against tow companies. I can only recall once.
Plaintiff from Long Beach: West Siiiiiiiide. 😁
less than 5 minutes in and I already knew the plaintiff would lose 😂
Should have seen if the neighbor had a Ring video of the tow 🤷🏻♀️
Right?? She called from VACATION!! I’m Sure she watched the tow happen! Lol
Wow, judge... that dress at the end!! You look Beautiful 😍
Uncle Rukkus for the WIN.
The defendant wore a regular t-shirt under a v-neck sweater 😂
Plaintiff looks like Dahmer
9:49 It's a snatch and grab hitch! What direction was the truck parked? How did they get the truck away from the curb? In order to get it onto the flatbed?
I had a similar incident when my car was getting serviced. I didn't noticed the 2 tires being flat til I started my car. My flat tired alarm was going off. I got out immediately. You could see a distant line in the cement from the car bay to my parking spot. Where the rims had left a line in the pavent. Similar to this guy's picture. The car dealership had to buy me 2 new rims & tires. How they didn't hear the alarm or the display saying the tires were flat is beyond me!
The plaintiff hasn't proven his case. Case dismissed.
Judge Milan...these litigators make me mad too. Like bring your receipts! SMH!!
No paperwork? Definitely guilty lol
To be able to serve that kinda side eye with just one is applaudable to say the least 😅
As a California girl, I can definitely say, plaintiff is def from cali😂
The towing companies are ALWAYS damaging peoples cars. They steal too! They did my relative the same way and caused so much stress.
i need the plaintiff’s number… for research purposes
hahaha a
Asking for a friend 🤣😂
Glad I wasn't the only one thinking that
Right
The Defendant should be ashamed of himself.
Why
Because he didn't bring any evidence in The Courtroom.
18:25 its never good to run your tank low. Now days all cars have electric fuel pumps in the tank. They stay submerged in the fuel, and the fuel acts as a coolant for the pump. If theres nothing to keep the pump cool it can overheat and fail. And that can be a costly repair. Much cheaper to have at least a quarter tank at all times
Dig that dress JM has on at the end of the show 🤗
I thought that's the whole reason why people have paperwork: if there's any dispute, all the information would be there, no need to remember anything. But, if he doesn't take it to the court, why bother with paperwork and signature?
Im happy the tow guy won. He had no evidence! Comon man. FJB
Why would you have a vehicle towed when you’re not even home. Thats a petty thing to do 🤨
Side note, the defendant is really attractive. Just all bronzed and whatnot.
Do you mean the plaintiff?
Evidence is King.
I didn't know Jeffrey Dahmer had a son😂😂😂
If you got in your truck and the two passenger tires are flat the truck and going to be leaning to the right. You 100% would notice that as soon as you got in it.
Only if enough air had already leaked out and the terrain where the vehicle was parked was level
I don’t agree with this verdict. They are supposedly supposed to rule with the evidence being more likely than not. And anyone who know how tow companies work, they know how rough they are with cars. What a weird coincidence that they towed his car and then the guy has two messed up tires and the plates under the car are busted . Like really ? That’s how they pick up the car by the tires and by hooking underneath by those plates. Bad ruling on this one
Only problem is he signed off that there was no damage and he had no proof.
I think his one good eye is getting mad at me
Clark Kent ain't fooling nobody 🤨😏🤣🤣🤣
Both of them are Ill prepared and judge Judy would’ve tossed them both out. I say lock them both up!
The plaintiff thought he could make a buck or 2 that's it ..
Judge made the right judgment 😊
Both of them are kinda cute tho.🤣♥️
If you're into the white Dahmer .
Dam!!! I love the outfit with your hubby!!!
They have NO PAPERWORK. THAT ALONE should be enough to pay for these tires. Those tires didn’t hole themselves on side
Plaintiff: Dude someone could have flattened your tires while parked in front of the neighbors.
Tow Truck Owner: Really dude…. No paperwork.., no nothing and you have a business!
Over there looking like Jeffery Dahmer 😂
Looks more like Matt Damon
It's a pick up truck and it's very possible to drive a block, wondering what the issue is, and only stop after a block. A block isn't far. He said he knew something was wrong. He just didn't know it was a flat tire until he actually got out his car and looked. Silly of him yes to pick up his car and not check for visible damage, but it's possible for someone not to know a tire is flat immediately upon moving an inch. Happens every day.
I’m curios, I’ve been towed a couple of times.
Long ago, tow companies used a form to mark any damage.
Even if he wasn’t present,I’m thinking there should be a form, to cover their butts. Heck these days, I’m thinking they’d have the form, AND pics. That’ll show damage, no damage.
Suspicious no proof for court, especially on the tow co. smh
Repaving doesn't "make nails" or things in the road that damage tires. Pretty clear they dragged the truck onto a flatbed and dragged the ties against the side.
The plaintiff is definitely real slow!
The gas story is epic 😂😂😂
He does have the jawline
Another stupid verdict from this ridiculous judge, tow companies damage cars all the time, I've seen this firsthand on many occasions, the tow rep brought nothing to back up anything on his side, the plaintiff had video and paperwork and yet he gets nothing, the truck was in the tow services care and upon leaving there were immediate issues, ridiculous!
Lol, that tow driver has had his ass kicked many times
There should be some sort of punishment besides losing for showing up to court with no proof.
Death penalty, at the very least.
On both sides
The plaintiff has the burden of proof and yet he ended up at Court almost empty-handed SMH
One note not mentioned.his truck was not done by himself..it was the operator of the forklift .He picked up the truck from the passenger side and on 1 attempt he punctured the tires..
He damaged his own tires by hitting something on street and try to claim the tow company did it.
It’s so annoying for these people that sues to come to court without EVIDENCE
I wonder, since the tires were on the passenger side (aka the sidewalk side when parked) if the home owner, that was sick of people blocking their driveway, slashed the tires by puncturing them but the tires didn't go flat right away and leaked out slowly... It would make sense why it's that side of the car and why the damage is on the side of the tires.
Except the lady who was sick of having her driveway blocked was not at home! She was away on vacation and only saw the vehicle on her ring camera that showed her a video of it
Best after verdict story. So funny.
