Walk It Through: The Car Towed From The Lot

A private tow in Massachusetts, the police told first, the bill capped, and release without charges when the section was not followed.

A driver parks behind a closed shop overnight and comes back to an empty space.

Two things a person in this spot might do. Picking one shows what the law says about it.

One car and one private lot. Local ordinances, fee schedules, police ordered impounds, and damage done in the tow are not worked through here.

A practice walkthrough, not a prediction of how any real one will go. Legal information, not legal advice.
