I don't think I hardly ever used the parking brake, even with the manual transmission I had on a couple occasions. If you are on a flat surface why engage the e-brake unless you are in one of those odd areas that require it by law. I say hardly ever as on at least one car I knew the e-brake was useless as the cable was stretched and wouldn't engage so I must have tried it at least on that one on an occasion (perhaps parking on a hill with a manual transmission, though being in gear and wheels turned should be enough). Riding with other people I don't think I have ever seen them engage the e-brake either. A better question would be who doesn't put the car in park or in gear?
I agree though this isn't a tow truck pulling illegally parked cars, likely insurance writeoffs as Payback said, or test mule dumps as this is clearly a crane pulling cars that could easily be accessed by a regular tow truck. Of course even with those two situations, why use a crane on site and not a regular tow truck to take it to the yard unless you need to render undrivable onsite?

>> ^Kofi:

Who parks their car without the hand brake on?! No one, that's who. FAKE


Also have to say it:
The Claw chooses who will go and who will stay.

>> ^Payback:
Probably insurance writeoffs that had to be destroyed.

Still extremely stupid. Could have sold many parts of those cars and made quite a lot of money.


Why bother, they can always steal better cars from western europe. *ba dum tsh*
On a serious note, I'm with Payback, since the cars don't have license plates.

i wouldn't say "fake", but it could be some viral marketing stunt..maybe for an insurance company?
people that were filming this were a bit too calm if they just randomly stumbled on such a scene.
