The proposed legislation is being called a new towing bill of rights: It would ban the practice of towing cars for expired plates, and tow companies would no longer be able to keep someone’s car if they can’t afford to pay to get it back.

Doris Morales walked to her car one day last summer to take her daughter to a critical doctor’s appointment.

Her daughter has Down syndrome and the doctor’s appointment that day was to check whether the food she ate was going down correctly. Without a car, they missed the appointment. It took five months to reschedule. The proposed legislation amounts to what sponsors call a new towing bill of rights: It would ban the practice of towing cars for expired plates, and tow companies would no longer be able to keep someone’s car if they can’t afford to pay to get it back.

“It’s just about creating parity between nonconsensual operators and car owners,” said Rep. Edie Hooton, a Boulder Democrat who sponsored this bill. “Because right now there is none. There is no accountability for the tow operators.”

Maybe you should park your car legally? I know it’s difficult for democrats to understand why there are laws, but someone is paying for the privilege of parking where you stole the right from them.
