What changed in the latest version
4 added · 6 removedPlain-language change summary
The updated version of the bill HB 802 now includes a change that prevents enforcement officers from towing vehicles outside of the state altogether. Previously, there was a provision allowing towing if the destination state permitted vehicles to be towed to the original state. This change simplifies the towing rules and ensures that vehicles won't be taken beyond state lines, which can protect residents from potential complications when retrieving their vehicles.
GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF NORTH CAROLINA SESSION 2019 H 21 HOUSE BILL 802 Second Edition Engrossed 5/2/19 Short Title:
A wrecker that tows a vehicle at the request of any State, county, or municipal law enforcement officer shall not tow the vehicle to a location outside of the State unless the state to which the vehicle is being towed allows vehicles in that state to be towed to this State." SECTION 2.
