car towed houston

How much can a towing company legally charge in Texas?

It is important to ensure that your vehicle can be towable. Different cars require different towing methods. Always think about how much you're towing, and the speed at which you'll be towing. Avoid causing any damage by towing your car in neutral.

If you've violated the parking laws, the police department may tow your car. Your vehicle can be claimed by you before the truck departs. The tow truck will not leave until you have presented a valid driver’s permit and identification. You must also provide your car keys or a rental agreement. Towing fees may apply if these are not available.

An additional mistake that is common is to keep the vehicle's drive wheels off of the ground. Excessive heat can lead to the transmission being burned. For a vehicle to be slowed down, it is best to use your brakes and not the transmission. It is possible for the transmission not to function properly when it comes to sudden stops.
