## Resource

In this episode of Meandering Musings, Neil Peterson recounts his unexpectedly expensive encounter with Seattle’s towing policies after returning to discover his car had been impounded for weeks without his knowledge. What begins as a frustrating search for a missing vehicle evolves into a deeper reflection inspired by the film Tow and its depiction of homelessness, bureaucracy, and survival. Neil explores how the same system that created an inconvenience for him can become a life-altering crisis for someone living on the edge.
