Pile up

Today, I got into an accident. As I was talking to a police officer about what happened, the tow truck driver managed to take my car and drive away, leaving me with no phone or wallet. I just spent an hour walking home in a hail storm. FML

Today, I crashed into a ditch on my way home from work. I had to walk 2 miles in -25 below zero weather before I could pick up a cell phone signal to call a tow truck. When I got back to my car, a cop was waiting for me with a ticket for leaving the scene of an accident. FML

Today, I got into an accident and my car was totaled. My friends then took me out to a bar for a drink to make me feel better. It appears that the police officer I'd spoken to had kept my I.D. by mistake and I couldn't get into the bar. FML

Today, my car broke down. I pulled to the side of the road to call a tow truck. After waiting what seemed like hours, the tow truck showed up, and then ran into the back of my car. FML

Today, my car was stolen from my driveway. I reported it to the police, the insurance company, and my neighbors, and begged for help via social media. As I walked to catch a bus, I saw my car parked outside my school. I forgot I left it there last night. FML

Today, the police called because someone had turned in my wallet that was stolen. I happily drove home only to find that my house had been robbed and ransacked. FML

Today, it's my birthday. My dad came to pick me up, but after I had put my backpack in the back seat and closed the car door, he drove off without me. It started to rain, and I was without my phone or wallet. FML

Today, I had the lovely experience of witnessing a tow truck cause a couple thousand dollars' worth of damage to my broken-down car. FML

Today, I saw a crash on the highway. The police weren't yet there, so I pulled over to help because I know CPR. No one needed CPR, but I had locked myself out of my car. My roadside assist won't come to highways, so I had to get towed away in front of everyone. FML

Isn't the police officer supposed to bring you home safely in such cases? What an ass..

You see, son, when a tow truck and a car love each other very much, they "hook up". This is followed by the truck giving the car a "ride", most likely to the tow yard. But afterwards, the tow truck will move on to hooking up with other cars, while OP's car is left alone, feeling used and very sad.

You should have asked the police officer if he could drive you home. Or at least provide with money for the bus.

So I guess asking to borrow someone's phone was out of the question?

Asshole to just drive off. In Australia when your car needs towing, the tow truck driver usually asks where you want to be dropped off. Seeing as you are no longer with car. Only the dodgy f*cks just take your car and go. Hell, when someone rear ended my 4WD, and my car was fine, there was a dodgy tow truck driver who would not GTFO and backed right in front of my car about to hook me up. Until I got in my car and drove away. The other guy was fine because the first dude on the scene was our local auto service and that guy was honest.

I highly doubt that would happen as the driver would confirm with you details and the officer would have clearly saw that you had no ride

Why would you not keep your wallet and phone in your pockets? Even if you took them out so you could provide police with proper identification, and used your phone while in your car to call them, wouldn't you put them back into your pockets after you were done with that part, before you got out and spoke with them, especially if you knew your car was getting towed as you were speaking?
