HB 824 Mississippi House · 2025 Regular Session

Towing of vehicles; create a procedure.

This bill creates a procedure for vehicle owners to reclaim their cars while they're being towed. Owners can pay half the towing fee within five business days to get their vehicle back immediately, rather than waiting for a sale. Property owners must post specific "tow-away zone" signs with required details (like "unauthorized vehicles will be towed away at owner's expense") before towing, and towing companies must report to police within 24 hours of a tow. It directly affects vehicle owners, property owners, and towing companies by standardizing reclaim processes and signage requirements.
