Fairfax, VA asked in Car Accidents for Maryland

Q: Should a tow truck driver have you offload your own car?

our insurance company had my 19 year-old son’s car towed to a local mechanic. My son met the tow truck there and the tow truck driver had my 19 year-old son take his own car off of the tow truck. In doing so my son let off the brakes and his car hit another car in the lot doing cosmetic damage to the other car. Should the tow truck driver even have asked my son to offload his own car?
