Impounding Vehicles Involved in Accidents With No Liability Insurance

DPD POLICY HIGHLIGHTS

Officers may impound uninsured vehicles from the scene of an accident. This policy will not apply to vehicles stopped for traffic violations.

If a motorist states that he is insured but unable to provide proof (insurance card, policy, etc.), officers will make a reasonable attempt to verify the insurance.

Officers will not leave the driver or other occupants of a towed vehicle in a hazardous location. They will transport them to the nearest safe public place with a telephone (current policy).


	Dispatch will have a list of insurance companies.
