If you are human, you understand we are flawed by design and made to make mistakes. One of the worst mistakes a person can make is to leave their vehicle in a spot that gets the attention of a tow yard. Because it’s easy money for them to take it and lock it away and hold it for ransom. Every municipality in this country has a towing contract with a private tow/storage operator or they operate their own. Rapid response towing is necessary to keep our roadways clear of crashed, abandoned and disabled vehicles. The first concern is motor vehicle safety and the flow of traffic. The second is revenue! 76,000 vehicles are impounded on US Roadways each day. That’s 3X the number of vehicle crashes – a staggering number. When you factor in the average impound bail out happens after 20 days, you are looking at an average cost of $1,400 per impound incident. Vehicle Impounds generate over $30B annually in the USA, making it one of the largest revenue segments. In the illustration above, the impound industry rivals’ telecommunications, healthcare, transportation and food & beverage. What does this all mean? Impounds and Tow Yards are here to stay and they have permission to seize your car and demand lots of money before they stop charging you and release your vehicle. If you ever had the feeling of being powerless in a situation, try getting your car back from an impound yard and you will be reminded.
