Why did Adam Bever say in git.general:
) my car, and furthermore that if any damage had been done, the company had no
) liability because they didn't decide to tow my car.

You _can_not_ contract away your responsibilty for negligence.  Even if
you have a signed agreement, it is not legal nor recognized by the courts.

Further, there are certain non-negligence related responsibilities which
can not be contracted away, and an agreement to that effect is also
void.  I don't know about specifically tow companies, but I know threre
are some for landlords--I learned this while in a disagreement with my
landlord over whether it was safe to live in a house with wiring so bad it
shocked me, or falws in the water pipes, etc.

So if you think you had to sign something that gave indemnity where it was
not deserved, look into it.  If they did damage, they probvably are still
responsible for it.

(par'n typos.  been pacing outside and my hands are cold & stiff.)
