AAA Driver Fired After Refusing to Tow Car with Biden Bumper Sticker (VIDEO)
A Trump-supporting AAA tow truck driver in Oregon has just discovered that karma really does bite back sometimes after a customer alleged Monday that he and his passenger were denied service because his car sports a Biden bumper sticker.
The customer just happened to film the tow truck driver, who was an employee at River’s Edge Automotive and Towing. Since then, the video posted to TikTok has gone viral, TheDailyNews reports.
“I don’t know this man’s name but he refused service to us for our Biden bumper sticker and tried to run us over shortly after this video,” the video’s caption reads.
Then the customer decides to read the truck driver’s license plate number and his employer’s name out loud as the driver returns to his truck. The man remains quiet while the video is being filmed and the clip doesn’t show him refusing service to the customer.
But the American Automobile Association decided to investigate the claims after the footage went viral on Twitter.
“At AAA, we stand for community and for our members,” the agency’s Oregon/Idaho division stated in a tweet. “AAA does not tolerate this type of behavior. The tow truck driver at River’s Edge Automotive and towing has been disciplined by River’s Edge management. AAA is working with River’s Edge to ensure this type of behavior does not happen again. We deeply regret the experience and inconvenience to the member.”

Biden has been declared President-Elect but President Donald Trump is stubbornly refusing to concede. That may be encouraging some of his supporters to do things like this. River’s Edge needs to fire this truck driver, just as the American people fired sore loser Trump. The U.S. needs to tell people like this to SIT DOWN.
