IMPOUNDED!!!
Not only were you arrested, but as you pulled away you saw the tow truck pull up. In Chicago when you are charged with the offense of DUI the officer has the right to impound your vehicle upon the spot. On top of impounding it, the City will assess fines and fees based upon the idea your car was impounded incident to an arrest involving a DUI case. If you thought a snow tow was bad think again, one day after being impounded incident to a DUI arrest the fines and fees to recover your vehicle can run in excess of $700 dollars. In addition, there are day for day fees added for every day the car stays in the Chicago tow yard. If that is not enough only the owner can get the car out of the impound lot. Suffice to say the process is designed to cost you a pretty penny far before you ever appear in court on your DUI case.
The impounding of your vehicle and fines, fees and costs can be challenged. Got DUI attorneys have successfully fought back and recovered fees and costs associated with a vehicle that was impounded subsequent to a DUI Arrest. Challenging and improper impoundment is time sensitive and unrelated to the Criminal case as they are Administrative Hearings conducted in a completely different courthouse. Act not to protect your rights, recover your vehicle and recoup costs, fees and fines for the towing of your car.
