Existing law authorizes the owner or person in lawful possession of private property to cause the removal of a vehicle parked on the property to a storage facility when signs are posted prohibiting public parking and warning that vehicles will be removed at the owner’s expense. Existing law requires the tow truck operator removing the vehicle, if the operator knows or is able to ascertain the name and address of the registered and legal owner of the vehicle, to immediately give, or cause to be given, notice in writing to the registered and legal owner of the fact of the removal and the amount of mileage on the vehicle at the time of the removal. Existing law makes it a misdemeanor for the towing company to remove or commence the removal of a vehicle from private property without first obtaining the written authorization from the property owner or lessee, or an employee or agent thereof, and requires the written authorization to include specified information, including the make, model, vehicle identification number, and license plate number of the removed vehicle.
