The ppl in charge obv don't gaf' enough to do their job. Who's in charge at that point..? Fx if anybody knows 😂 I wouldn't doubt it if a lot of those cars were towed by police order on victimless crimes, people being unable to pay the impound fees, and then being left to be forfeited instead. Owners unable to afford retrieval, tow yards unable to afford storing them indefinitely, and local gov't too lazy (and seemingly geeked out) to properly address the problem. Boom. Society shooting itself in the foot. Maybe I'm wrong, but that's what it looks like to me. It's only downhill from here folks 😆

      I had a client whose vehicle was stolen, located, towed and it took her two months just to FIND it due to the paperwork nightmare.
      When she finally did locate it the impound fees were over 5k.
      And she found the car had been utterly trashed. Windows broken, seats and major engine parts missing, wheels missing, ect. She found the towing company that impounded the car and, according to their photographs, ONE window was broken, the vehicle had power and could be cranked (i.e. the engine functioned). The towing company, of course, took photos prior to towing and subsequent to drop off, detailing all damage.
      She's been fighting the impound lot over the extra damages they claimed were caused prior to the vehicle arriving... despite the photographic evidence.

      Fulton County, Georgia had 1.065 million residents as of 2021. So, there is potential for thousands of abandoned vehicles being towed in a year. Furthermore, those who are responsible for processing the paperwork associated with those vehicles are not in control of the budget to cover the salaries of those employees. And, dealing with abandoned vehicles is just one small part of their job responsibilities.
      The problem is obviously more complex than this brief news report could possibly convey.

      It's likely a similar problem, people just abandon the already low value damaged cars if the storage fees are added, and then tow company has to keep it for two to three months before they can make anything out of it, but it could also be years if the government ain't doing their job as seen here. Better to just quickly get rid of the car by the owner and at least receive the towing expenses in return ey? Even two months seem quite long if they are lacking space and there is an abundance of towing jobs, they could run through a dozen cars using that space and make much more profit in the meantime.

On the other hand, the department the motions go to can cause a lot more screw ups because of negligence. Even more as you go higher up.

    If an online or purchased form is used, it might be hard to prove they sent the motions. Even with a screen shot.

It cost just under $500 to reclaim the car. If a car is towed and isn't or can't be reclaimed within the first day or two the cost will quickly escalate to the point that it isn't viable to claim it. When you consider just how few people in the country have money to cover a $500 emergency it shouldn't be surprising that towed cars would never be reclaimed.

    The tow yard is happy to tow in abandoned vehicles, and afterwards, it resells them for storage and tow fees and excess is returned to the state. Usually, that sale is less than the fees, so no excess is ever returned. The point being, tow yards have no problem collecting too high fees. If they lowered the fees, they'd incentivize the state to act, and poor owners to collect their maybe broken or stolen cars bc the fee is way less than the value of their cars.

    The judges need to get off of their asses and address this instead of just letting criminals out on bond which seems to be their priority

    So why not just move the multitudes of cars that aren't a part of the lawsuit? They just want the judges to rule they can have your car after 15 days.

      If they can move the car they move the car. Those are all cars they don't have the title to.
      That's why you have to go to the state is to get the title.

      They try to blame the Judges for the lack of room on their lot, whilst admitting only a few dozen cars are there because of the courts.
      If they bothered the courts for the junked car titles, they could move them. They are only worried about running cars they can actually sell.
      They can get title bonds on the vehicles, along with placing an ad in the papers, and the state will send them a title in their name. 🤷

      The non wrecked non police 🚔 cars are pulled from apartments and housing complexes for noncompliance, things like no tag, flat tires, abandoned vehicles, expired tags, etc. Futo has regular auctions for these cars. Most go to pick and pull junkyards, some are sold to individuals or car lots, and the rest go to scrappers. RUclips channel TowTrucker.

      ​@meansnowflake they get the exact same amount for running as non running cars. $175 tow fee $25 a day storage. These fees are set by the state. Any money collected over the amount needed to settle the tow and storage bill goes to the state.

      @@ManMountainMetals Yeah, for a year for the owner to claim (most people don't even know they have money pending). Then the tow truck company collects the money. They make plenty of profit off of this, including their "fees" for selling it.
      Either way, my point was that they are using "space" as an excuse, whilst admitting most of the cars taking up space aren't a part of the issue. So why not do something about the rest of the vehicles they have abandoned on the lot?

    just simplify the laws to once the vehicles are in yards the vehicle owner has 21 days to pay or the vehicle is sold to the tow company for all money owed.

      That is essentially the law in most states. When you pick up cars after an accident not everyone has insurance on it. Then they won't pay the tow bill for a totalled car, so you can only get the scrap value. You can only sell the car to the junk yard after you get the title.
      The state isn't giving them the title.

      Where I live, after 30 days the lot owner can apply for a new title in their name which takes about 3-5 weeks. It isn't really a problem with unclaimed cars, because most cars that come in are insured wrecks and/or still owned by lenders.

      @@user-dw1ls3rp1l it takes the courts or DOT to get that title. That's the issue here in Atlanta. The judges just aren't doing their jobs. For years apparently
