There are also horror stories where the tow truck's equipment fails while towing a car. For instance, the tow chain or cable breaks and the car being towed is left in a dangerous position, like in the middle of a busy road. This not only endangers the car itself but also other vehicles on the road. And if there is any damage to the car due to this equipment failure, the towing company may try to avoid liability by making up excuses.

I heard about a tow truck driver who got a call to a haunted house area. When he was towing the car away, the mirrors of his truck showed a face that wasn't there in reality.
