An Act relative to the maximum storage charges on motor vehicles involuntarily towed
This bill amends Massachusetts law to increase the maximum daily storage charge for vehicles involuntarily towed from $35 to $48 per day. It directly affects vehicle owners whose cars are towed without consent (e.g., for illegal parking) and towing companies that charge these fees. The change modifies an existing provision in Chapter 159B of the General Laws, updating the fee cap without altering other requirements or processes. This is a straightforward procedural adjustment to the fee structure.
