Here’s something you should know, that you will still have to pay towing fees if your car is found after a car theft.  (that is if you don’t pick up the car within a reasonable amount of time of 20 minutes.)  I guess this only goes for non-SF residents so… just know!

Two weeks ago, Espinoza was attending a high school fundraiser in North Beach. At some point, Espinoza realized that he’d had too many drinks to drive, so he called a taxi.

The ride ended up costing him an additional $330. That’s because the next day his 1995 Nissan Maxima was missing.

“I got a call from the police dispatcher about 7 that night. He said the car was found and I could either pick it up in the next 20 minutes or they could tow it,” Espinoza said.
