WHO TOWED MY VEHICLE IN SAN JOSE?

Often in San Jose, it is private companies that are towing vehicles.  When your car is towed, the police department will have a record of the towing, and you must contact the company that towed the vehicle and pay them the fees due and owing.  Vehicles that are towed because the driver was unlicensed or because the driver had a suspended license are subject to being held for 30 days.  If the car is held for 30 days, the vehicle may be released if the person driving the car at the time that it was towed/impounded obtains a valid drivers license.

If the California Highway Patrol towed or impounded your vehicle, then you may have to contact them.
