Towing Directorate of any assembly is the body responsible for making sure our roads, pavements, parking spaces, streets etc. are clear for movement especially from unauthorized parked vehicles or faulted cars been parked at the wrong part of the road.
They make sure the road networks and the aforementioned areas are free for locomotion without illegal frustration.
Most drivers mostly in my region, Ashanti Region accuse them of unnecessary hunting. They regularly complain bitterly about the activities of the association saying they nab drivers unlawfully.
Reacting to this in an interview, the Ashanti Regional Towing Boss, Mr. Thomas Owusu Ansah debunked the accusations against his outfit by the vehicle operators.
According to Mr. Owusu, they only enforce the law which they are mandated to. He said the association works with drivers in accordance with the law to obey simple instruction therefore they are law enforcers, not drivers witch-hunter.
He stressed that it is worrying to hear drivers saying towing men/women hate them.
“If we arrest you for not parking well that doesn’t mean we hate you, NO! We’re only enforcing the law.
We are friends in the work but if you fail to comply with the law, it must deal with you accordingly.
You’re not our enemies, just obey the law”, Mr. Thomas Owusu Ansah, A/R Towing Boss revealed adding that the association will heavily bite with this Xmas.
He, therefore, cautioned drivers, pavement sellers, hawkers, etc. to be wary of their businesses in order not to clash with city authorities especially guards.
Not sparing his men, he sent a word of caution to them. He warned every member of the association to execute his duty genuinely if assigned.
