A University City, Mo., Tow Truck Took 150+ Cars From Driveways and Backyards in 3 Years, No Warrants, a Lawsuit Says

The state wants a paid personal property tax receipt and, for many vehicles, a safety or emissions inspection certificate no more than 60 days old, according to its plate renewal requirements. St. Louis County cars also have to pass the Gateway emissions program. If any one of those steps fails, the tags lapse, and plenty of owners leave the car in the driveway while they save for the fix.

Adam Pearson on St. Louis’ Code Blue outreach

In this episode of The 314 Podcast, host Sarah Fenske talks with Adam Pearson.

He discusses what they learned last year and what’s on his mind as we head into another winter.
