I was driving on the highway today and was behind an Astro van towing a Jetta. There were no plates on either vehicle because they were coming from the auction. The Jetta was moving from side to side at least a foot, probably more like 18". Just so happens they pulled into the gas station I was going to. Heres what I saw when I got near it.

The ball on the van was just bolted through the bumper. No safety chains. The bumper cover was removed and the towbar was bolted under the jetta. I got out of there so I wouldn't have to follow them. There was a whole caravan of them.

Just hope they make it to Mexico before they have an accident and kill someone...

I see that kind of crap rolling down I-35 all the time down there in Northern IA and Southern MN headed for the border. They show up at the auctions, buy up as many cars as they can and bolt the tow bars on them any way they possibly can.
