What about the rights of the property owner? It costs MONEY to have a parking lot. Ya gotta purchase the land, get it paved, pay property TAXES and the like. You parked there for the purpose OTHER than to patronize the business that OWNS the parking lot and you're annoyed that they called a tow truck? Property owners have rights too! How about the guy who blocks your driveway? Wouldn't you want the vehicle towed??? You didn't do anything that others have done-disregarded the rights of the folks who paid to own the lot and the PATRONS who pay to maintain it, but you got caught- boo h*o! Businesses provide parking for their PATRONS, not for folks going somewhere else and are too cheap to put some money in a meter or go to a parking lot where you pay to park. I have rental properties (with tenant parking) and I don't hesitate to have a vehicle towed when I get a call from one of my tenants because some cheapskate thinks it's OK to use a parking space that OTHER people are PAYING for (my tenants pay to have their reserve parking spots.)

YOU parked in the jack in the Box parking lot and did NOT go into the jack in the box, they ahve every right to tow you. Maybe if you went the the restaurant first then across the street, you might have been ok, bucause then youw were a customer. How do you know it only took you 5 or 7 minutes? Most things take longer than you think they do. Next time, don't park in the lot if you are not a customer.
