On 10/16/25 around 5:28 PM, a driver from J’s Towing nearly sideswiped me on US-131 northbound, merging recklessly from the Hall St. ramp during rush hour, with his long truck. The driver didn’t take caution when entering high traffic. I had allowed space for others to merge safely, but J’s Towing forced their way in, trying to squeeze through a tiny margin— a move that could have easily caused a crash if I had gone any faster! My young child was in the car at the time, and I can’t imagine what impact this would’ve caused, thank God it didn’t. I then saw the driver continuing to speed and weave through traffic toward the S-Curve ahead of me. Whoever manages this Google business account should note that this driver is dangerous and should have his license or driving ability revoked. He is operating dangerously and putting lives at risk. This kind of behavior could easily result in a serious accident. With that being said, I’m reluctant to do business with J’s Towing if needing this type of service in the future.

They didn’t tow the vehicle to the location that I requested. They did not inform me of the incredibly high tow bill after I specifically asked them to inform me. And then when I questioned the $2300 tow bill, I was told by one of their drivers, “We can charge whatever we want to”. Because of these unfair and questionable business practices I will be reporting to the Attorney General Consumer Protection Agency. If we had full coverage they would have charged my insurance company this ridiculously inflated bill. This is why our insurance premiums are so high, because of this type of fraudulent behavior.

J’s tow truck blocking the road next to the shop on my way home from work. I can see a minute or 2 but not 10. Rude!

Shout out to Justin (driver) tonight for getting my car towed to the mechanic. AAA dispatch told me I could go home and wait since it was going to be a while yet and that I’d get text updates when the driver is on the way. The last text I received was a 67 min ETA. Justin called me when he arrived and had to wait about 5 minutes for me to return. He was very chill and understanding about it. He did great work and loaded/unloaded very efficiently and was very personable! Thank you!!
