My question is, How do these people get away with this? If I owe more than $150. they come to take away my car! How can they rack up a bill of over $30-40,000???? I really don’t understand.
There is a Baum from Rockland County who has been nebach dead for at least 10 years. Could it be?
how come they did not tow his car
