Looks legit to me, although of course these days anything's possible. I'd guess it's a Bertram on Ocean Drive in Miami Beach, perhaps on the way to the Convention Center. They built them over by the airport, and looks to have been placed on the trailer with a crane. Not all that hard to get the thing going on flat land, but stopping that baby would be no mean feat! I think the 1W tag is probably the correct weight class for the Volvo (heavier vehicle tags sported two w's), and maybe the guy put the tag on the front so the cops would be less inclined to stop him?
My least favorite thing about towing here are the fairly narrow, curvy two lane roads, with few sidewalks. Once in a blue moon you come around a curve and find a pedestrian or jogger on the edge of your side of the road, and a dump truck or something big coming the other way. Ah, the taste of adrenalin in the morning!
