Emergency Brake???

I recently got my car towed after going out one night. I usually pull up the emergency brake each time i park it. But when i went to go and pick it up my emergency brake was down when i got in. So does anybody know how the dammed tow company got my emergency brake down before they actually towed it???

you've never seen a tow truck driver use a "Slim Jim" before?!?

locked my keys in my car once and tried using a coat hanger for about 15 minutes. got tired and called a tow truck. he got here in 5 minutes, asked for $30, and slim jimmed my door open in 10 seconds. damn was i pi$$ed. he could've at least pretended to struggle.
