Reply to comment by AmnesiaInnocent in Cambridge will pause towing for street cleaning days but fine $50 by CaballoDePalo

Not sure how you figure. Towing is free to the city and they can then clean where the car had been. It’s cheaper because it collects revenue switching to ticketing, but cannot clean where cars are parked

I thought that they used to have police accompany the tow trucks. Now they won't need to do that. Even if they have meterm... um... people issue the tickets, that's got to be less expensive than having cops do it...

Haven’t seen that, good point. I thought they just tip off the tow company who charges the driver $100-200 for the pleasure.
