Well, calling them dumb may have been harsh on my part. My point is that many tow truck operators think they know the law. That doesn't mean they do. The driver of the vehicle is prohibited by law from leaving the scene. Nothing to my knowledge prohibits the tow operator from leaving the scene.

I agree that they are likely not going to leave before police say its okay. If police aren't on scene they may ask fire if it's okay. They don't need the okay. And, btw, fire has no authority to restrict them from leaving or say its okay to leave.

Tow operators are out to make money in a cut throat business. I wouldn't rely on anything they tell you as being accurate and reliable.

I didn't say fire has any authority, I said he said they could write down his truck number and tell the police he left with the vechicle before they arrived. I made my point it was simply generally tow trucks won't leave before police arrive if they have already been dispatched, unless bribed with extra cash and no fire or ambulance on scene. That is real world experice as I have been in that situation. That's all
