What happens if someone parks in a parking garage, but doesn't have enough money to pay


precious snuggles , Tuesday, 10th of August 2010 07:40:30 AM

Would they impound the vehicle, send a bill in the mail, or do something

else?

l am interested because it is almost borderline theft

911'' who calls a ''tow truck'' & the car goes into impound immediately.

SUCH AS. if you refuse to pay at the car wash or jiffy lube.. they have NO  
obligation to release your car to you until you settle your bill. SO..  
you better make sure you have some coin in your pocket, just in case.
