Relating to the civil liability of towing companies, booting companies, and parking facility owners for certain violations.
HB 2906 increases civil penalties for towing companies, booting companies, and parking facility owners who intentionally, knowingly, or recklessly violate Texas towing and parking laws. If they break these rules, vehicle owners can sue for $1,000 plus three times the fees charged for removal/towing/storage, $500 per day they can't use their vehicle, and reasonable costs like rental cars. The law applies only to violations occurring on or after September 1, 2025, not past incidents. It directly affects vehicle owners harmed by improper towing or booting practices.
