§ 8-122. Debris glass, etc., at accident scenes.  


Latest version.
  • Where vehicles to be towed have been involved in an accident, it is the responsibility of the vehicle owners for consent tows or the persons authorizing the tow for nonconsent tows to ensure that any glass or other debris or parts are removed from the scene of the accident. The owner or person authorizing the tow may perform the work or cause the work to be performed by another person, including but not limited to the wrecker drivers performing the tows of the affected vehicles. The fees established in section 8-123 of this Code for the nonconsent tows are inclusive of glass, parts, and debris cleanup and removal for services other than tows requiring heavy-duty wreckers. For consent tows, any additional service fees for those services shall be disclosed on the wrecker slip provided under section 8-113 of this Code. This section shall not apply to the towing of vehicles under section 8-127 of this Code.
