@RalphYYZ @TPSTrafficDC @TorontoPolice @TPS_BikeHart @TO_Transport @TPS_pke_rider @ParkingTPS @TPS_Tagger @EverildaTPS @TPScott_baptist @TrafficServices Considering the only required fields here are First Name, Last Name, Relationship to Property, Contact Number, Email (and confirmation) - We would call it a black hole.

@TPSTrafficDC @TorontoPolice @TPS_BikeHart @TO_Transport @TPS_pke_rider @ParkingTPS @TPS_Tagger @EverildaTPS @TPScott_baptist @TrafficServices This is a disgraceful user experience. You’d think after nearly four years since we demonstrated our app to your officers you could have created something less arduous that civilians would actually use.

#TowIt was originally created in response to #Toronto mayor @JohnTory’s election mandate to "get this city moving”. It’s now 4 years later and we see no change whatsoever. Thank you to our users & advocates. Our apps are now unsupported. #TOpoli #ONpoli @jen_keesmaat @SaronGeb

[TowIt @TowItApp]

@jen_keesmaat Thank you for your commitment to this city. You have our vote!

@johnjpattee Interested PDs can connect us to access our API directly. They don’t need to monitor the aggregate data on our site and in our apps.

[TowIt @TowItApp]

@johnjpattee Talk to your local government reps and police department and tell them why you think our app is a good solve to the problem.

@QldPolice @vaughan_k @brisbanecityqld This process is incredibly cumbersome and time consuming. Our app takes seconds for civilians to report offences. Perhaps you’d like to chat?

Follow-up to my previous post. @TowItApp has a brilliant crowdsourcing platform where you can report parking violations and bad driving which can then be monitored by municipalities. Forget #PokemonGO this is way more fun and beneficial. Join and increase the user base.

We've just made some minor changes to our website: https://t.co/htXnCZl20Y #springcleaning

@corecorina Well then- happy reporting!

[TowIt @TowItApp]

@corecorina Our iOS app should do it, no? https://t.co/0zEJXOENsu

@Damians06 That depends- what is this in regards to?

@SpinalSpiral49 Thanks for the love!

@nycspicebo We've always said we're not out to ruin people's lives or tow cars endlessly. We just want people to think about how their actions are impacting others. Putting oneself above others, playing the game of odds, and thumbing one's nose at the law doesn't sound like a civil society.

[TowIt @TowItApp]

@nycspicebo For now it seems all we have is the public shaming of inanimate objects. We're simply trying to feed such frustrations into a unified global system so that the global epidemic can be seen for what it is. It boggles our mind how much leniency is given to drivers and their vehicles

[TowIt @TowItApp]

@nycspicebo Oh for certain! Unfortunately, and as your article accurately mentions: "Governments and local governments are the last ones to evolve to changing technology". It's hard advising dinosaurs.

@nycspicebo @ProductHunt Just finished reading through it!

[TowIt @TowItApp]

@nycspicebo @ProductHunt We've considered it all. At one point we thought we could employ the homeless.

[TowIt @TowItApp]

@nycspicebo @ProductHunt Thanks for sharing- it's very interesting to see how similar some of our thinking is/was!

[TowIt @TowItApp]

@nycspicebo @ProductHunt What's that saying... Great minds think alike, though fools seldom differ. :)
