Wire a tazer to the car body - when you get back to your car, just drag the unconscious tow truck operator out of the way

I'd try not to park where I'd get towed, or dinged, or a bird might crap on it, etc. But if you make it difficult for the tow guys, they just take it as a challenge.

I understand that when you get towed, most of the time for us the a hole towing
What makes the tow truck operator an "a hole". Seems to me the a**hole would be the guy who parks in a tow away zone to begin with.

I have had one car dropped off at my shop like this. Basically, the driver gets the bed at its top incline and just "bounces" it back and forth. The tires will slide on the metal deck until they hit the ground. Then the driver can just pull the deck forward since the front wheels will roll. Then shops have ways of moving it around after that until keys are located.
