    That may be considered theft from private property.

    A clear violation of the 5th amendment taking clause. When the city refuses to stop these illegal activities, then they’re complicit and should be held accountable.

    The cars were off the road. Not driven and do not pose a threat.
    This sounds eerily familiar to the predictive policing another city just got in trouble for!

    Four years ago, my mother's car was in danger of being towed as a result of having an expired license plate. It was parked in our driveway, on private property. The car was not a derelict. My mom had was hard of hearing, with the onset of dementia. UCity Police Dept did post a sticker on the front door, warning us of an eventual tow if she didn't comply. I didn't know they could come onto private property.

    at this point i would tell them "seeing that you stole my cars and you are telling me i have to pay a steep fine to get them back ... seeing i can not pay your shakedown price ... you can keep them if you pay me for them if not ... then i want whom ever in jail for theft of my property"

    The city about 30 miles from me lost their contract with their local towing company a few years back. The towing company cut all ties with the city after a couple of their tow trucks got shot up because of tows done on the cities behalf.
    The tow truck companies doing these tows for the city got to remember people get mad about the bad illegal tows will not only go after the city and they'll go after the tow truck company as well. All tow truck companies need to rethink the contract when working with the law enforcement

    "Plates on the vehicles"? With CURRENT tags/registration? Bet not. And three vehicles as a single-adult household? That being said as long as the vehicles are on private property (not blocking the sidewalk) and not leaking/etc then she has every right to STORE (not DRIVE) the vehicles.

    The city doesn't make money from towing fees, the tow company does.
    But, the cuty fors make money ($50-$150/ day) on impound/ storage fees.
    And if you cant pay it, they sell your car at an auction.

Private Property means you have zero leeway to put hands on anything for one, and 2, I'll only ask you to leave once. Then it's a toss up. Who arrives first?

    Why would they tow the cars, even if the tags were expired? I know the laws are different depending on where you live, but unless you're caught driving those cars with expired tags they should be left alone. Even if you're caught, a ticket should be written up and if driving elsewhere, towed to her home at her cost.
