City threats to tow away my truck

[Pyrotechnic]

My 78 is sitting in the street in front of my house. The front end is smashed pretty bad from the person who hit me head on a few months ago.

There's this lady down the street that has a weird fetish for reporting cars in the neighborhood that are in less than great mechanical shape or have not moved for some time. I know of 3 cars on our road that have been towed off an impounded because of this. I don't have any proof of this but I have a damn good hunch that it's her.

Today there was an orange sticker on the truck saying the vehicle will be removed in 48 hours.

The soonest my dads friend can come with a trailer and tow it to his barn is on this coming Monday. The sticker was placed on the truck today 3/14/07 at 1:00PM. I'm going to call the number on the sticker tomorrow and see if I can work something out with them. My dad left a message but they never called back. I'm gonna try to bargain with them on this.

Should I tell them that the truck is still under insurance investigation and it cannot be moved? Should I say that arrangements have been made to have it removed, but the earliest that can happen is this coming monday ?

What if the tow truck driver comes? The last thing I want is a confrontation with a tow truck driver, because I know it's going to get very ugly very quickly with the possibility of me getting in trouble for my attempts to stop my truck from being towed.
