  • Emergency police tow (crashed his mom's Toyota). Here is a world's first for my channel, something that doesn't have a rotator in it! Our specialty at Pepe's Tow is the ability to handle any major wreck, no matter how bad, with ease using our state of the art equipment. But the truth is, the bulk of our volume is heavy duty towing, and we also do regular cars too! Not just ones 300' down a cliff, but regular impounds and accident tows.
    This one is from Alex's view on a CHP "owner's request". That's when CHP calls us for the tow, but the driver has the option of where to take the vehicle. In other words, they aren't forcefully impounding the vehicle. In this case, the owner had us take it back to the shop and it was picked up the very next day.
    Fortunately no injuries, but I thought it would be cool to show a different side to Pepe's than the usual stuff that has our name known in the towing world all over. What did you guys think of this light duty job? Should I do more stuff like this beyond the roll overs and car fishing?

    This one really brought back memories of the nine years when I dispatched something seemed to have changed, if we were called out by NHP, NCS or CHP and they didn’t use us they had to pay a call out fee and we had to tell them if it went to their home and had to be towed again ins. only payed the first tow. But that is like 16 or more years ago. Love the videos

    The entire time you were in the car I kept lifting my head straining to see over the steering wheel, LOLOL. My Dad was an adjuster and it always surprised me when a car was totalled and when it wasn't. Sometimes they looked like this or worse and they fixed them, other times they looked almost perfect and they were a total loss. Just depended on what was broken.

    The Arroyo Seco sounds like the Merritt/Wilbur Cross Parkway in Connecticut and the Southern State Parkway on Long Island, built decades ago when traffic was much slower, even with upgrades barely suitable for today's speeds yet extremely busy. The Southern State in particular always seems to have fatal crashes.

    I've never even considered taking one of my PARENTS cars out without telling them let alone cutting up with a Camry lmao. Hopefully this is a learning experience for both the parents and son. If they were more strict on him, whilst also making sure he's comfortable enough to ask them questions and for favors or exchanges without bashing him, then the thought of using a car without permission wouldn't have even crossed his mind. They could be too strict to the point he decided "F' it, they aren't gunna let me use it anyways so I might aswell take it" or they're not strict enough and he did it because he doesn't understand the consequences of his actions. He could have thought if he got back home safe then he'd maybe be scolded at the maximum. Either way, learning experience on the son and parents end, but an expensive one. At least everyone is safe.

    @ 5:50 when you started pulling it sounded like the horn at the Duluth Lift Bridge. Milwaukee just had a classic clean up last week where a Kia being pursued as a stolen vehicle clipped the front of an auto then spun around plowing under the first parked car and had enough momentum to stack a third car and the whole batch caught on fire. Using the small truck you get to stay fully prepared for using any of the equipment

    This was a new experience for me seeing Alex using the roll back to tow a car to the yard. I notice that you told the fellow that his insurance would pay for the tow. I suspect that only applies to full coverage insurance and not 'liability'. But that is not really your problem anyway. Interesting video.

      Correct, it’s California you’re required to be fully insured. Insurance companies hate paying storage so no way they’d let it sit. On top of that there is no doubt a lien holder

      Sure. But when the owner/driver is passed, it's no big comfort the car 'just bounced off'. The new cars got a much higher chance of survival for the driver, there is a LOT happened regarding safty since the 40 yeears back! The newer cars are made much softer in the front, to take a hit and deacelrate less, saving more drivers lives.
