Towing Issues: Towing Codes/Laws in Los Angeles, tow truck driver, california code


Question
I read or heard somewhere that by California code a tow truck driver is mandated to release/unhook a car in process of being towed if the owner shows up before the tow truck has left the sight. What Law or Code number is this?
Thanks JS

Answer
Read my blog on California Towing Laws at sftow.blogspot.com and you will find your answers. The last I checked Los Angeles was still part of California. Los Angeles has a code similar to those of San Francisco. You will find them in the Los Angeles Municipal Code

JS gave me a poor review for my reply. Evidently JS wanted me to lay it all out on a silver platter for him. I provided a web blog for him to read as well as pointing him to the Los Angeles Municipal Code. The answers are in the Blog.  Evidently he chose not to read it. Too bad.
