Business

501 N Morton ST

Case Date:

Fraudulent business practices continuing to occur at Speedy Wrecker Services LLC, 3170 S. Walnut St., Bloominton, IN 47401. This business specializes in non consensual and predatory towing. Once the car is impounded, they only offer odd hours for pick up, demand cash only payments, and do not collect taxes. The price per tow is over twice the normal rate in town. My son was charged $240.00. He settled via small claims mediation. Two friends since that case have been charged $180.00 each for a tow that should cost $90.00. The Bloomington Police have been contacted on each incident but that doesnt seem to be enough for Speedy Wrecker Service to change their predatory business practices. Is this the type of business Bloomington wants to be known for? This company is a disgrace! I would like to see the Bloomington Parking Commission create some regulatory actions against predatory towing.

The photo say it all. I find this every day all over the city. It is quite annoying having to step over or move these "coasters", (which they are not). This is at Kirkwood and Lincoln

Blocked Sidewalk

The Vendors and the users of the scooters are nowhere near as courteous as cyclists. Those damn things are just thrown on teh sidewalk, blocking pedestrians and handicap ramps. They are a menace when ridden on sidewalk, and even more dangerous when ridden on the street. There is nothing innovative about these. They need to be removed from service until the vendors take better care of them when they are idle, and the users properly park and ride them.
