Illegal Towing in South Weber
Illegal towing has become a point of concern especially where apartment complexes are located. Some rogue tow drivers in South Weber may want to make money out of unsuspecting resident especially the seniors and non-locals. Such a tow driver will collaborate with some of the residents of the target area so that they will be notified any time a vehicle has been parked and without following the right procedures, the will tow the vehicle away.
Some parking will not have any sign indicating that parking is not allowed. Others will have parking slots that are not clearly marked which may confuse drivers in the process of parking of the vehicles.
Whenever you suspect that your vehicle was illegally towed:

• Take photos or a video of the area you had parked the vehicle and ensure that the markings, signs, and any other thing that would be of importance is clearly visible in the video. The video should be dated for authenticity purposes.
• Look for information regarding the tow company that towed the vehicle and if you cannot find it, ask from the apartment nearby. It is illegal to fail to give such information upon request to a concerned person.

The tow company should report of the impounding to the South Weber police department and if this has not been done two hours after your car was towed, it would be right to conclude that your vehicle was stolen.
If you get the information that will help you to get to the towing company that impounded your car, ask for the following:

• The kind of towing that was performed
• The name of the tow driver that was operating the tow vehicle at that time.
• The towing license of the concerned driver.
• The reason why the vehicle was towed
• The parking violation that was enforced during the towing
• The person or the complex who made the call to have the car towed
• Photos that prove that the vehicle was wrongly parked

The towing company should be willing to release the vehicle as soon as you pay the towing fee. You should ensure that you inspect your vehicle for any damages or missing items before taking it from the premises. If you notice any damage to the vehicle or that there are missing items from the car, contact the South Weber police department and report the offense.
Rogue towing companies will use a consenting driver to conduct illegal towing as a way of covering up their act. To know if this is the case, you will input the name of the tow driver and the license number on the TDLR’s website and if the details do not match, this is a violation that should be reported. Reporting this violation to TDLR will create an avenue through which you will be able to get the money you had paid for the illegal towing.
You should always be very careful when parking your vehicle in South Weber so that you will not fall victim to rogue towing companies.
