I was at an Airbnb in Alameda a few years ago for RSA Conference. My boss' rental car was illegally towed from our designated parking space, in the middle of the night. That sucked to notice in the morning. We took an Uber to get to the ferry, while my boss called the police to report it stolen, they already had information that it was towed. He got the car back pretty quick. They had guard dogs at the towing place apparently. I don't remember the rest of the details, since getting the car back was all second hand story.

The next day we drove into SF with the car cause we needed it to pick up some things. We street parked somewhere, to go for dinner, and almost immediately a cop walked up to us and told us we really shouldn't park there otherwise the car will get stolen. We were like wtf geez, okay then. Iiirc we found a parking garage instead.

So yeah, as a Canadian, wtf San Francisco, get your shit together!
