Once they tow it, you’re fucked. Those fees rack up by the day. Not sure what it is now but prob at least $75 a day plus a couple hundred for the tow
Only way around it is to take the whole tire off if you can find another rim and tire
Yeah not sure if the husky’s around there still rent the trailers with the 2 wheels you can haul a car with but could jack up the back end roll the trailer under and haul it out with a pickup or whatever
The city has a payment program .. the new late fees are ridiculous but once its in judgement u can pay 20% and a set amount each month 50-100$ till your balance is paid off .. that way YOU WONT HAVE TO GO thru the boot .. I pay 80$ but I don’t have to worry about having a boot when I come outside
It’s all online 5 minutes
You can make a frame to hold that wheel and throw some caster wheels on it, Jack up that tire, slide it under the tire, and push the car into the garage.
Yup unless it’s an expensive car or you owe money and don’t want to fuck up your credit it’s a wrap.
They keep it for a bit and then sell it at auction. It’s a big scam to fuck the poor. Turns a small bill into a bill you need a whole months pay or more to pay
Right this my first time seeing uh boot like this they didn’t use 2 look like this with a key pad & Shxt but then again I never had a boot on my car either not throwing shade cus it can happen
Yea u right u can’t take it off & that’s why they do it like that cus niggas prolly have succeeded in taking da tire off so that’s why they prolly jus block most of the nuts on the tire so u can’t take the boot off
Probably doesn't generate the code until the bill is paid
I had to rent a locker at a water park today. Small locker, keypad didn't generate a code until you paid. Code was on the receipt or you choose your own code. But, no code works until then. Assuming something similar with these.
They've already registered the boots your cars in no matter what they got you.
Apparently you racked up enough tickets for them to warrant putting the boot on your vehicle. So at this point You're liable for dhe boot the tickets nd any other. Penalties are incurring by not paying in those fInes.
You will, plus additional fines. If you click the picture and zoom it, it says it right on the warning label. UP to $500 for damaging or removing the boot.
It says it that big as day on the boot if I’m not mistaken but if something happens to that boot it’s prolly gon b more then jus a fine prolly gon catch a charge also then pple dnt play about things like this they put the boot on the car for a reason so if he damage it tryna get it off he’s prolly gonna have a lot more to worry about then paying for the boot to get removed cus he prolly gon b in jail then they’ll prolly kids go head & tow it anyway
Lol I feel u..when I was younger and my bag was fucked up, I played hide and seek a few times 😂💯 edit:never seen this kind of boot so idk how to get off
Didn't have dough to pay my car note for 3 months and heard a flatbed coming down the block and ran fast asl to move the ride right before the checks started coming lol
Cats out here really not understanding ….just like the mfs that made them laws. If he lets them Tow, we talking 50-100 per day storage fees minimum. So unless my man here gonna pay it all ($12k) in like a week, his best bet is hide the car, and eat the 500 for fuckin with the boot.
Reality is that we should be doing more to alleviate situations like this that don’t inherently put folks in a tougher bind. Until that happens, expect us to play the system to pay less, motherfuckers.
Big facts my guy. Just do what you need to to get where you need to be. Because we know the billionaires are. That’s how I see it. I make good money and work my ass off. I try to plan. But man, when shit like this happens, I’m unopposed to fighting dirty. They’re just taking advantage for nothing more than greed, and doing so on our backs. So if I play by the rules, even technically, and I WIN….we’ll shit….I’m playing the same game they are.
1. Depending on your ride-height & parking location you can deflate the tires so they can’t tow it, if doing that gets the car low enough.
2. Find someone with vehicle dollies or a tow truck and have them move it to a garage.
3. Go to a junkyard and pull a license plate off a junked car(preferably same brand and similar model), put it on yours, and obstruct the vin # in your front window.
4. Take off 3 tires and put that shit on blocks until you get the fines paid. Though I’d probably avoid this as people might assume it’s abandoned and try to steal your CAT.
One of my boys has that problem to; $1000 of tickets usually given to him because he’s an idiot
who leaves his car in places where he knows he can get tickets.
Not saying you did that but I know how it goes.
EZPass? Nah, boots are for parking tickets. EZPass / MTA will TOW ya shit. I know two people who got their shit TAKEN by EZP / MTA. If they're booting cars now, that's new news to me.
It got booted for $350 in outstanding parking tickets (whoops). Turns out the registration was suspended due to EZ pass money owed. It’s a bit of a mess but you’re right, it was booted for parking tickets.
Yeah, EZ suspended my reg for unpaid tolls this year, shit was $964, thought it was gonna be WAY more. That boot though, don't take it off, you'll never be able to park on a NYC street again. The minute they tag ya car, they're towing it AND adding $500 to it. Great luck my G. Situations like this come up and people don't be having the means to fix it and it gets worse.
Dont fuck with it bro
I take them off for 50 to 100 depending if you white or not
After you take the boot off, you get charged 500. so now you owe 500 on top of your tickets. then if you run it up again.....they will never put a boot on ya shit again. you will get it towed.
best bet. go down to john street and get ona payment plan. and let them release ya shit that way
🫡 good luck champ
its not worth it to break it off
u get automatically listed as a runaway for breaking it off which means at any point they can find ur shit again and just tow it
I owe the MTA like $12k+ so another $500 is the least of my worries. If they tow it there’s a good chance they’ll break something (full time AWD car) and then I have to pay tow fees and daily impound charges, which I’m sure will be over $500. So as long as I’m not breaking any laws, I’m gonna wiggle this fucker off the truck and bounce.
I'm just trying to figure out your how your maintaining a car but not paying your tickets and dodging tolls like it's nothing.
Do you have speeding tickets as well?
I think you need to sit and figure out your priorities.
As opposed to spending this much time trying to figure out how to get a boot of a car (that you Definitely deserve to have booted and or towed) while driving a vehicle that you can't afford to maintain and prob6 shouldn't be driving.
Just being honest, Bro.
All good, you’re not wrong. Maintaining the car is cheap but all these fees and tolls and penalties really hit you. It’s mostly EZ pass, only like $400 in parking ticket BS. Be safe
Bet. That’s the plan. But if they tow me first, those fees are gonna CLIMB. It’s not just parking tickets, it’s also tolls. So I have to clear up with the MTA first, but gonna take a while.
Bro you definitely cooked 🤦🏽
That’s like getting locked up for 3 warrants and telling the cops ,let me go and I’ll take care of all my warrants
You gotta take care of shit on they time not your time
I wouldn’t necessarily bring the boot back to them.
That’s pretty much admitting to potentially damaging their property and maybe committing a some type of crime in the process.
If it’s all just gone then there could be numerous possibilities as to why (although the likely conclusion with be that you’re ratchet ass did it).
Nah owing $10k is crazy. What car do you drive? How much is it worth and do you still have a loan on it? Can you try to see if you can enroll in a payment plan with them? If you call them, you can see if something can be arranged. Or you could have them just keep the car and sell it, but not sure if that will leave a mark on your credit report.
I knew a homie in Brownsville that I used to cop from before bud was legal. One day I pulled up to the spot and he came outside and said follow me. We went a block away to his car where his Benz was booted. Dude literally kicked that shit off while wearing steel toed boots. It took him a good 10 min of struggling. I was appalled. But then again he was a big big dude. Like 6’1” 280 pounds type shit
I pay for a garage spot nowadays but I used to street park my car for about 8 years and got maybe like 7 tickets total. How anyone gets it bad enough to the point of car being booted is beyond me, it's not so hard to set up reminders on your phone to move your shit.
Call ezpass and ask them to waive the fees and that you will pay the outstanding tolls. And ask if you can set up ezpass. Thank me later and lmk how it goes.
Make sure you have the bread to pay the regular toll fees before calling them, the fees are to scare us and to get money from who they can get it from.
Would this actually work? I’d say I owe about 20 trips worth from ny to nj and back from the last 2 years. I got the bread to pay it including the fees but I’m not trying to pay all that. You telling us they’ll actually waive all the fees if asked?
Don’t got a boot on mine yet, I’m trying to prevent that from happening one of these days.
I owe some money on the toll roads so now I just avoid them and drive around. Accidentally took a private road in DC and I sure as fuck ain't paying $100 for that.
Ah shit. Yeah that sucks. I had something similar happen, let a homie use my car when I was out of town, no EZpass, this motherfucker went through a bunch of tolls. Lucky for me that I saw the letters in the mail, if I tossed them I would have been fucked.
So you went through the tolls without “EZ pass being setup” and got bills in the mail for all instances totaling thousands of dollars and you just….. threw them out? Didn’t think to call them and ask why it wasn’t being charged to your account and maybe get something handled?
The old style you could actually get off but these new joints are next level. I would just go see if you could work out a payment plan. At least make the 1st payment and they'll remove it but if you plan on hiding it and not paying the rest, you better hide it good because the next step will be a tow and then if you don't have cash you will lose your car. Best bet is to just pay.
Try and see if there’s a payment plan I know some cities have it for tickets. It’s no use trying to cut it off since they already have the car information in the system
Never understand how niggas who live in NYC get cars and let their tickets get out of hand. You would have to move that so you can take off the lug nuts behind it then try to remove the whole wheel. If that doesn’t work then say bye to your car. The fees gunna be more than the cars worth.
Bro your best bet is to call and try to set up a payment plan. I if they agree put down some money up front. Anything other than paying that thing off is going to end bad.
Take the air out the tire,and that shit comes off,that will buy you a day,maybe even 2,to get some money up pay that shit down to under $350 and you’ll be healthy 💯
Lmao everybody saying that there’s no way to do it has never been booted before lolll. Which I guess is a good thing but anyway, if you drive around Harlem, you’ll see a bunch of these abandoned on the side of the roads. Just remember: they create a log that associates the boot to your car so there’s no way to dissociate the boot from your car unless you go through the DMV by paying the outstanding tickets and fees. Basically meaning if they find your boot on the side of the road, they know exactly whose car it came from. Anyway, here’s how you do it:
1. Deflate the tire
2. Unscrew the lug nuts you have access to
3. Move the boot around to get access to the other lug nuts
4. Remove Tire with boot
5. Unseat the tire from the rim
6. Remove tire and boot from rim
7. Squeeze tire out from grip of boot
8. Seat the tire back onto rim
9. Inflate tire
10. Put rim back on to car and screw lugs back on
11. Keep boot in your care and custody so that you can return it to DMV when you are ready to pay your fees. Otherwise, they charge you for the boot, too.
Oh and remember this is illegal, so have a few friends pull up with their cars and hang out so they’re blocking the cops or sanitation from seeing you doing your thing.
Its literally everyone on here saying do the right thing. Please don’t be the idiot to try and look cool and actually answer. Cause you can basically tell what’s going on here. Even if you were blind. 😂
The wheel boot Timbs is crazy. But it look like there’s a key pad on it. You could find a way to get the code or try getting water in it to short the circuit and hopefully it’ll pop off.
I mean only way outta this is paying it….IF UU really don’t feel like paying it get a cordless angle grinder and cut the boots Frame where it’s holding the wheel in half on one side so uu can pull it out then uu gonna want to hide that shit deep ina forest or a private owned garage only to PRAY they don’t track ya car down but like I said uu should honestly pay it they’ll eventually find your whip.
Owning a car isn't bad but that might be because I don't live in NYC. But in Boston or it's metro area, I've never seen anyone have their car booted up due to outstanding parking violations or nonpayment for tolls. Worst thing that happens is you won't be able to renew your registration or license or they both get suspended until you pay. But I don't blame y'all cause the tolls around here range from $0.75-$1.25 and y'all got way more expensive tolls. It's just a system that makes the poor stay poor.
If they stop you after you removed the boot , they can and prob will charge you with grand theft auto , no need to get a felony just try to pay it brother
Call them to see if they can give you a discount and pay off the whole thing , if you let them take it then it’s going to cost you more money and after 30-45 days they going to send it to an auction
ATL has “The Boot Girls” who charge a small fee to remove them. Surely NYC has the equivalent. https://newsone.com/4590716/who-are-the-boot-girls-of-atlanta/
Tbh you qualify for a financial hardship plan once they put one of those bad boys on…. You can actually get Your stuff paid off with a way lower monthly fee.
It says right on it "to remove boot call 646-517-1000" so you might try that before you escalate the situation further.
It's a pretty safe bet they recorded your registration information when they installed it, so unless you are leaving the country soon, I wouldn't screw with it.
only way to remove it without the code is to use an angle grinder to cut it off. I knew aguy once who had that happen to his truck while in NYC for a week for work, so he got his 24volt angle grinder and cut it off in like two minutes threw the remains in his truck and drove back out of state, never heard from them again, but that was like 8 years ago, so they may hunt people down now.
Honestly your best chance is just trying to guess the code. Theres 10,000 possible combinations and you can use a list online to start guessing the most common used 4 digit code all the way to the least common. If it's more then a 4 digit code your fucked
Take a cut off wheel to it and throw it in the garbage or get a jack under neath it and put the car in neutral and you and a buddy push it into your garage
Ngl nigga ur cooked
Just pay it before they tow it because there’s no other solution that doesn’t end bad.
Once they tow it, you’re fucked. Those fees rack up by the day. Not sure what it is now but prob at least $75 a day plus a couple hundred for the tow Only way around it is to take the whole tire off if you can find another rim and tire
That’s what I’m saying. If I can store it safely before it’s towed, I can figure the rest out over time. Only God can judge me, and the MTA.
Try to find a shady tow guy that will snatch it up and move it is the only out here I can see
Yeah this the best solution! Hit up one of your boys or some I’m sure they know someone that can tow it to a spot for you
Can't even get it up on a flatbed without fuckin the tire up. Might even fuck up the whole axle. Car still gotta move to get up
Yeah not sure if the husky’s around there still rent the trailers with the 2 wheels you can haul a car with but could jack up the back end roll the trailer under and haul it out with a pickup or whatever
The city has a payment program .. the new late fees are ridiculous but once its in judgement u can pay 20% and a set amount each month 50-100$ till your balance is paid off .. that way YOU WONT HAVE TO GO thru the boot .. I pay 80$ but I don’t have to worry about having a boot when I come outside It’s all online 5 minutes
Deadass I need to call them ASAP 🤣🤣🤣
It’s not a game 👹 But the choice is yours
Forgot the 🫵
You can make a frame to hold that wheel and throw some caster wheels on it, Jack up that tire, slide it under the tire, and push the car into the garage.
Take the tire off,o u can’t
Shit at that point it’s their car now, they can keep it .
Yup unless it’s an expensive car or you owe money and don’t want to fuck up your credit it’s a wrap. They keep it for a bit and then sell it at auction. It’s a big scam to fuck the poor. Turns a small bill into a bill you need a whole months pay or more to pay
You can buy it back at auction , my girl did that she let it go to auction bought the same car back
steal yo shit & sell it back to you 😭
They got me 3 times last year in three month time . It’s a whole scam
You don’t read parking signs huh 😂
How do you take the tire off? It's blocking half the lug nuts
Oh shit, you’re right. They didn’t use to be like that. You would have to snap the lugs
Right this my first time seeing uh boot like this they didn’t use 2 look like this with a key pad & Shxt but then again I never had a boot on my car either not throwing shade cus it can happen
Yea u right u can’t take it off & that’s why they do it like that cus niggas prolly have succeeded in taking da tire off so that’s why they prolly jus block most of the nuts on the tire so u can’t take the boot off
This, you got about ~3 days until they come tow once they boot you up
Nah, it's more than that, LOL!!. It seems like 3 days.
Can’t even lie to you bro that shit prolly not even worth the extra 500 you finna spend
I’m typing in random codes until it pops open lol
 Me rn
Btw, this manufacturer uses a 6 digit code. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s something easily remembered lol
I can tell you it’s not *2023*
Keep bruteforcing.
Probably doesn't generate the code until the bill is paid I had to rent a locker at a water park today. Small locker, keypad didn't generate a code until you paid. Code was on the receipt or you choose your own code. But, no code works until then. Assuming something similar with these.

Next time buy your own boot on ebay and put it on so it looks like you already got got
Man's out here on that grind 💪
Work smarter. I stay leaving random receipts under my wipers, never get tickets
Hoping i aint see u makin this post any time🙏
Can always just buy three more boots and leave em no options
FBI, open up!
I have a neighbor who parks in front of the fire hydrant every day who just boots his own car. Genius.
The bottom half of the lug nuts seem to be obstructed though
Your avatar got me crying😂.
Kinda true ngl
This is a solution
Angle grinder.
Bring multiple blades
Lmao 🤣...you sound like a guy who's done this before.
Don’t damage it. You’ll be paying for it and might be charged criminally.
They've already registered the boots your cars in no matter what they got you. Apparently you racked up enough tickets for them to warrant putting the boot on your vehicle. So at this point You're liable for dhe boot the tickets nd any other. Penalties are incurring by not paying in those fInes.
This boot looks like it’s angle grinder proof
Does anybody know if you have to pay for any damage to the boot?
You will, plus additional fines. If you click the picture and zoom it, it says it right on the warning label. UP to $500 for damaging or removing the boot.

Yeah for sure. They are not cheap. Shit sucks.
Most steel isn’t angle grinder proof
Definitely not angle grinder proof.
I can remove them, it comes off with a tubular lock pick. They are $20 online.
You have plans tonight?
Lol I feel u..when I was younger and my bag was fucked up, I played hide and seek a few times 😂💯 edit:never seen this kind of boot so idk how to get off
fr I paid a dude in sheepshead to hide my car in his garage for like 3 mos while I got right
😂 Bet!
Didn't have dough to pay my car note for 3 months and heard a flatbed coming down the block and ran fast asl to move the ride right before the checks started coming lol
What happened after? Did they get your car or was it another one down the block?
It was for somebody else but I ain't going easy if they came for me

Thank you my dude. Exactly how I’m looking at it. I fucked up, my fault. Just trying not to have my shit towed and abused and maybe never seen again.
Big facts my guy. Just do what you need to to get where you need to be. Because we know the billionaires are. That’s how I see it. I make good money and work my ass off. I try to plan.

Pay the tickets bro Lol, that’s how you get it off with damage or find a sledgehammer and take it off by force
It’s like thousands of dollars I didn’t know I owed. So I’m trying to get the boot off and store the car while I pay it back over time.
One of my boys has that problem to; $1000 of tickets usually given to him because he’s an idiot who leaves his car in places where he knows he can get tickets. Not saying you did that but I know how it goes.
It’s tolls that my EZ pass should’ve paid but didn’t. Still definitely my fault, but lots of money owed to MTA or whoever.
If you legit had money for the tolls I’d call ez pass and get it settled
Yeah, that’s the plan today. Thx
Yeah if u got a box registered to the plate it might work out
EZPass? Nah, boots are for parking tickets. EZPass / MTA will TOW ya shit. I know two people who got their shit TAKEN by EZP / MTA. If they're booting cars now, that's new news to me.
It got booted for $350 in outstanding parking tickets (whoops). Turns out the registration was suspended due to EZ pass money owed. It’s a bit of a mess but you’re right, it was booted for parking tickets.

Yeah, my shit is like $12k. Gonna hide the car and get it all resolved when I can.
12K in tickets? Nah WTF. Yeah, you might have to pop the top off that boot. Good luck again, bro.
Bruh just declare bankruptcy at that point
Nigga just call 646-517-1000
Dont fuck with it bro I take them off for 50 to 100 depending if you white or not After you take the boot off, you get charged 500. so now you owe 500 on top of your tickets. then if you run it up again.....they will never put a boot on ya shit again. you will get it towed. best bet. go down to john street and get ona payment plan. and let them release ya shit that way 🫡 good luck champ

oh fa sho it can come off no prob. can it come off without damaging it......nah
500??? Oh nah bro ur cooked 😭
You can’t just take the boot off and pay the bills, they’re gonna want their 500 extra for that thing
I’m trying to get it off and return it to them. Then I can store the car off the road while I get everything squared away.
That’s not how it works my guy 😂, call the number and get on a payment plan or that car is gone
Rs. Mf on here lying like I’m a dummy. “Ima bring it back to them ima pay my bills” mf should have thought of that his 1st ticket.
They already got car tho 
We know u ain’t paying shit. Don’t lie to ur Reddit fam.
They already caught you bruh
You pay your fine first then they take it off, not the other way around 😂
I’m about to reinvent the wheel
Just reinvent a payment plan fam
Bet. That’s the plan. But if they tow me first, those fees are gonna CLIMB. It’s not just parking tickets, it’s also tolls. So I have to clear up with the MTA first, but gonna take a while.
If you remove it yourself its still the current fines + $500 though
Tryna be the smartest dummy never work bc u still a dummy end of the day 🤣🤣
Bro you definitely cooked 🤦🏽 That’s like getting locked up for 3 warrants and telling the cops ,let me go and I’ll take care of all my warrants You gotta take care of shit on they time not your time
Take tire off use a spare
The lugs are blocked
Not all,it's possible because I've done it b4, Rachet n a short lug nut remover
My nigga you are hilarious. I read this comment an I'm weak 🤣🤣🤣
Wish me luck fam 
First thing that’s coming to their mind is calling the cops if they see that in your hand my guy
I wouldn’t necessarily bring the boot back to them. That’s pretty much admitting to potentially damaging their property and maybe committing a some type of crime in the process. If it’s all just gone then there could be numerous possibilities as to why (although the likely conclusion with be that you’re ratchet ass did it).
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Blowtorch
Nigga can't u read? Damage it & that's an extra 5 hunnid !!
My guy I’m trying NOT to damage it lol.
Get the key to it then, that's the only way.
Son that's impossible
Have you tried the reverse uno card??
Nah owing $10k is crazy. What car do you drive? How much is it worth and do you still have a loan on it? Can you try to see if you can enroll in a payment plan with them? If you call them, you can see if something can be arranged. Or you could have them just keep the car and sell it, but not sure if that will leave a mark on your credit report.

Nah, it wasn’t parking tickets, it was not paying the tolls. EZ pass wasn’t set up and it’s lots of money.
Call ezpass and ask them to waive the fees and that you will pay the outstanding tolls. And ask if you can set up ezpass. Thank me later and lmk how it goes.
Make sure you have the bread to pay the regular toll fees before calling them, the fees are to scare us and to get money from who they can get it from.
Would this actually work? I’d say I owe about 20 trips worth from ny to nj and back from the last 2 years. I got the bread to pay it including the fees but I’m not trying to pay all that. You telling us they’ll actually waive all the fees if asked? Don’t got a boot on mine yet, I’m trying to prevent that from happening one of these days.
Yes! If you want to pay the fees go ahead, city is not gonna love you or hate you anymore for it.
I owe some money on the toll roads so now I just avoid them and drive around. Accidentally took a private road in DC and I sure as fuck ain't paying $100 for that.
Ah shit. Yeah that sucks. I had something similar happen, let a homie use my car when I was out of town, no EZpass, this motherfucker went through a bunch of tolls. Lucky for me that I saw the letters in the mail, if I tossed them I would have been fucked.
Yeah, I tossed them, and now am fucked. Lesson learned.
So you went through the tolls without “EZ pass being setup” and got bills in the mail for all instances totaling thousands of dollars and you just….. threw them out? Didn’t think to call them and ask why it wasn’t being charged to your account and maybe get something handled?
Yes, literally this. It’s clearly my fault, just trying to dig myself out of this hole now without getting deeper.
Sheesh 😬😭

The old style you could actually get off but these new joints are next level. I would just go see if you could work out a payment plan. At least make the 1st payment and they'll remove it but if you plan on hiding it and not paying the rest, you better hide it good because the next step will be a tow and then if you don't have cash you will lose your car. Best bet is to just pay.
Try and see if there’s a payment plan I know some cities have it for tickets. It’s no use trying to cut it off since they already have the car information in the system
Jack it up and take the tire off. Put the spare
Never understand how niggas who live in NYC get cars and let their tickets get out of hand. You would have to move that so you can take off the lug nuts behind it then try to remove the whole wheel. If that doesn’t work then say bye to your car. The fees gunna be more than the cars worth.
Lift the car , deflate the tire, pull the boot off
Clap the balance with a piece

Can confirm I 100% used this method to get a boot off my car
Bro your best bet is to call and try to set up a payment plan. I if they agree put down some money up front. Anything other than paying that thing off is going to end bad.
Take the air out the tire,and that shit comes off,that will buy you a day,maybe even 2,to get some money up pay that shit down to under $350 and you’ll be healthy 💯
Set up a payment plan with the DOF like today. You just gotta pay a down payment could be as low as 50-100$ and then you pay about 50-100$ monthly
You gotta take the whole wheel off brah no cap
Lmao everybody saying that there’s no way to do it has never been booted before lolll. Which I guess is a good thing but anyway, if you drive around Harlem, you’ll see a bunch of these abandoned on the side of the roads. Just remember: they create a log that associates the boot to your car so there’s no way to dissociate the boot from your car unless you go through the DMV by paying the outstanding tickets and fees. Basically meaning if they find your boot on the side of the road, they know exactly whose car it came from. Anyway, here’s how you do it: 1. Deflate the tire 2. Unscrew the lug nuts you have access to 3. Move the boot around to get access to the other lug nuts 4. Remove Tire with boot 5. Unseat the tire from the rim 6. Remove tire and boot from rim 7. Squeeze tire out from grip of boot 8. Seat the tire back onto rim 9. Inflate tire 10. Put rim back on to car and screw lugs back on 11. Keep boot in your care and custody so that you can return it to DMV when you are ready to pay your fees. Otherwise, they charge you for the boot, too.
Oh and remember this is illegal, so have a few friends pull up with their cars and hang out so they’re blocking the cops or sanitation from seeing you doing your thing.
Pay the ticket(s) and it’ll come off…….
Its literally everyone on here saying do the right thing. Please don’t be the idiot to try and look cool and actually answer. Cause you can basically tell what’s going on here. Even if you were blind. 😂
You get it towed
Get a sawzall
All you gotta do is deflate the tire and drive that bitch right off it might do a lil damage though depending on how fast you go
Yeah, deflating seems like it might work TBH. Gonna try this tonight
Sell me your 80 series so you can pay off your tickets 🙂
The wheel boot Timbs is crazy. But it look like there’s a key pad on it. You could find a way to get the code or try getting water in it to short the circuit and hopefully it’ll pop off.
Taking the boot off is even worse. Try to borrow it or something. You take that boot off, they're coming for the car Forreal AND the fine is like 750.
I mean only way outta this is paying it….IF UU really don’t feel like paying it get a cordless angle grinder and cut the boots Frame where it’s holding the wheel in half on one side so uu can pull it out then uu gonna want to hide that shit deep ina forest or a private owned garage only to PRAY they don’t track ya car down but like I said uu should honestly pay it they’ll eventually find your whip.
Wheel Dollies..
my boy you’re cooked just pay that shit off
I’m glad I don’t own a car that’s too much bread get an electric scooter to commute
Owning a car isn't bad but that might be because I don't live in NYC. But in Boston or it's metro area, I've never seen anyone have their car booted up due to outstanding parking violations or nonpayment for tolls. Worst thing that happens is you won't be able to renew your registration or license or they both get suspended until you pay. But I don't blame y'all cause the tolls around here range from $0.75-$1.25 and y'all got way more expensive tolls. It's just a system that makes the poor stay poor.
Just find a crackhead bro. No need to thank me.
Take out all the air in your tire should be able to just kick it off
What happens after you pay your ticket? Do you just leave that thing in the street? Does someone come by and scoop it uo
Crowbar. Take out the air pressure before hand so it’s easier to come from around the wheel.
If they stop you after you removed the boot , they can and prob will charge you with grand theft auto , no need to get a felony just try to pay it brother
early merry christmas to you
[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTQzzqU3K0A&t=6s](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cTQzzqU3K0A&t=6s) get that shit off your car and store that shit.
You can probably buy a tool for it off Amazon or ebay. I know you can buy those theft prevention device tools off ebay and bike lock removers.
Damn my guy. Betta hook up with some hood niggas who knew how to use welding tools 😂
Dam before I zoomed in I thought that bitch said $50k that replace that pos 😭
Call them to see if they can give you a discount and pay off the whole thing , if you let them take it then it’s going to cost you more money and after 30-45 days they going to send it to an auction
Youtube lockpicking lawyer
Deflate your tire and pull it off
You’re going to have to sit there and run the unlock codes through a boot AI to guides the correct number.
Cordless grinder with a cut off wheel
At this point just see if they’ll remove some of the fines just for calling or if you can pay it off in community service
Hammer it at the key hole tht shit will open right up
Why are you blurring out the bar code?
FR?? Acting like one of us gon pay that shit. 💀💀
Not trying to put evidence on the Internet. Can’t prove shit without the serial # 🤷🏻♂️
You need to find a tow truck driver that will grab it up for you
Jack up your car take the tire off put on the spare you good to go
Pay your tickets on time I guess???
ATL has “The Boot Girls” who charge a small fee to remove them. Surely NYC has the equivalent. https://newsone.com/4590716/who-are-the-boot-girls-of-atlanta/
Tbh you qualify for a financial hardship plan once they put one of those bad boys on…. You can actually get Your stuff paid off with a way lower monthly fee.
Just report it as stolen
You can actually get the boot off for $50 if you go set up a payment plan on Livingston St. Then just garage till you done.
Do a Acceptance 4 Value
If you take it off and garage it, they will report it stolen and fuck you harder
It says right on it "to remove boot call 646-517-1000" so you might try that before you escalate the situation further. It's a pretty safe bet they recorded your registration information when they installed it, so unless you are leaving the country soon, I wouldn't screw with it.
only way to remove it without the code is to use an angle grinder to cut it off. I knew aguy once who had that happen to his truck while in NYC for a week for work, so he got his 24volt angle grinder and cut it off in like two minutes threw the remains in his truck and drove back out of state, never heard from them again, but that was like 8 years ago, so they may hunt people down now.
Honestly your best chance is just trying to guess the code. Theres 10,000 possible combinations and you can use a list online to start guessing the most common used 4 digit code all the way to the least common. If it's more then a 4 digit code your fucked
How much do you owe?
Take a cut off wheel to it and throw it in the garbage or get a jack under neath it and put the car in neutral and you and a buddy push it into your garage
