Towing Issues: Towing from garage, parking garage, property owners


Question
There is a parking garage where I work in Arlington,Va., and there is an old truck with Oklahoma tags that expired in 2004 that has been parked in the same place for several weeks or more. It is trashed and heaped inside with garbage. Can this vehicle be removed? Who has the authority to do so?

Answer
The property owners - managers are the ones who have the authority to sign the authorization to have the vehicle removed.

Of course there also have to be signs posted at the entrances warning that vehicles will be towed, and if no signs are posted at this point, then they might have to have some posted and wait till the laws say that it would be legal to have it towed.
