Bought a fixer upper with expired tags. Just as I'm ready to take it to get a smog and start the registration process it gets towed. With no notice. No warning. No chalk. Nothing. I called in and it took me forever to get any useful information.They just kept passing me around from department to department. They all treated me with zero respect even though I came at them respectfully. Nearly all of the staff was rude and talked over me. One even started screaming at me while I was trying to explain my situation because it's not as simple as "come get your car and pay the fees". It's like another reviewer said. They could easily give a warning before something serious happens but then they will miss out on the revenue. Any PD in San Mateo county is like this. They are by the book with no chance of warnings or even letting you know something is wrong before things get serious.
