Reply to comment by RVAGuywithNoID in Towing at the VCU 7/11 by Allkin06

Im replying to your additional comment.

It's literally half full at any given time. Let's say a customer runs into Christians for 5 minutes to get food, then the tow truck driver comes and takes up three spots just towing the car....you could argue they are actually making it worse taking up multiple spots to tow the car. Maybe a compromise from the tow company would be a small grace period at the very least... but that wouldn't make them money, and we all know that's what it's all about.

How do you know it's never full? Are you literally watching it 24/7? Not saying you're wrong but there could be times when it is full (like lunch/dinner hour) and you just never see it.

I don't agree with a grace period. The signs are clear. Parking is for customers of 7-11 only. If they give an inch assholes will take a mile and ruin it for others. They have to be consistent. If the parking really is what you say it is though, all the more reason why Christian's could pay for the use of a few spots.

I work 10 hour days and go there pretty often, at random intervals throughout the day...but no I don't monitor it 24 hours a day haha. It's just what I've personally seen.
