QuestionI was in car crash and my car went over in a ditch and the tow company charged me a recovery fee and a tow charge is that legal in Indiana
AnswerYes in 99% of cases it is legal...
There are at times contracts with law enforcement where the rates are specified and as such you might have a regulated rate based on flat rates, hourly rates, or any other kind of rates..
But think about this, the tow company is called to "TOW THE VEHICLE" and if they have to do any kind of "RECOVERY" then it would be above and beyond the basic call.
Recovery is winching of the vehicle from ditches, mud or over an embankment. It requires a bit more skill and knowledge than just how to load a vehicle.
