Vehicle Impounding

Your Vehicle Can Be Impounded From Your DUI

13 09.08

Vehicle impound is an option used by some states when there has been more than one DUI conviction.

The vehicle may be seized, or an ignition interlock device may be installed on the steering wheel of the car, requiring the driver to pass a breath test using the device before he or she can start the vehicle and drive away.

The cost of retrieving a vehicle is not cheap either. Consider this:

  • $117.00 – Administrative Release Fee
  • $110.00 – Initial Cost of Tow
  • $660.00 – Outside Storage Rate (30 days @ $22/day)
  • $100.00*- Lien Processing Fee
  • $974.00 – Total 30-Day Cost (approximate)
