Car towed to impound lot after accident and I can afford storage fees. Can I get plates back for DMV and am I still liable for storage if company keeps car?
You can turn your title over to the towing company to pay for your fees. You will need to go to the place that has your car and remove the plates and hand them in. Make sure you keep all receipts for at least 4 years because if you get a flag on your license you won’t be able to renew. This happened to me before. If your car is worth less than the fees, you will still be held liable unless the tow company agrees to write off the difference.
