I left a review on their FaceBook page and late last night I received this message from them (see below). I like that the owner seems to be receptive and taking responsibility
Mr. Chavez I am the owner and operator of Torrez towing and recovery LLC I was made aware of the situation this morning and was told by several sources of what occurred. I apologize for the situation and assure you that the driver has been reprimanded made aware of how to drive around cyclists by allowingat least 6 feet of room and made aware not to drive The truck in this manner. As you know the grade is very steep and the truck weighs nearly 19,000 pounds but I assure you this will never happen again with any of our drivers or employees.if you would like to speak to me personally about this my number is 505-927-3574 and we can find a way to rectify the situation thank you have a great day.

I would give the business owner the opportunity to correct the behavior. If the driver was the business owner, then reviews are good place to feedback.

Report him to the Public Regulation Commission who regulates tow trucks and can pull his license if they want.
Better yet, look up who your PRC Commissioner is and call them.

Hi Fellow Cyclists,
Today, on the ski road in Santa Fe, myself and another cyclist who was riding alone, had coal rolled in our faces by the driver of this tow truck in two separate incidents.
When I confronted him up the road, he was belligerent and threatening and came at me, using the customary logic that I should not be on the road in the first place.
The ski road in Santa Fe is mostly state park, we are not even talking highway here.
I know you all have many choices as to where to give your business, and I realize that 'rolling coal' is not yet illegal in NM. All I ask that you not use Torrez Towing should you need a tow.
