Here is a great story of the crazy things that happen in city operations - this from San Francisco:
SF tow surprise -- a body in the back seat

April 6, 2011 Our full column will be on SFGate on Friday.
As vehicle tows go, it was pretty normal: a plain white van hauled away for parking in a Tenderloin yellow zone without commercial plates.
That is, until they found the body in the back.
It turns out the van was owned by a local funeral home and its driver had been headed back to work when he made a stop and illegally parked.
The cops were called and then the funeral home, which arrived a little later to discreetly move the cadaver to one of its other vehicles.
But only after completing the proper paper work -- and paying the $473 tow and ticket charge.
