    It was stuck and the tow truck driver ran out of fucks to give that day.

      Tow truck drivers have an abnormally low number of fucks to give on a good day so this tracks.

        A tow truck driver once decided for me that a failed hood release latch on the side of the highway wasn’t an issue that needed towing (he flat out refused to tow my car even though I specifically called them to tow my vehicle, and asked him to tow it to the nearest dealer).

        He “fixed” it by cutting a bunch of holes into my bumper to attach zip ties through and then ducttaping the remaining gap closed. His genius solution made a 100 or so dollar repair (that would’ve been covered under warranty as I learned later) a several thousand dollar repair that required a new front bumper, new grille, and a bunch of paintwork. And a new hood latch of course.

        Zero fucks to give seems generous in my experience.

      hard to not understand given the highway is the most dangerous place for a tow truck to be at (youd be suprised how common it is for a negligent driver kills a tow truck driver numbers speaking on a highway). they want to get out of there ASAP

    When cars encounter predators they cannot outrun in the wild, they sometimes shed a tire and maybe an axle to distract their enemy. Don’t worry, I believe they grow back in time.
