OMG, Dumping of vehicles has to stop. I’ve had two in our neighborhood in the last year. Last one a neighbor got the dumpers on camera. However EPD declined review the footage. Only took them about 2 weeks to tow it. I was told that EPD has towed 900 abandoned cars in the last 3 years.

You'll see the outcome
