TDLR proposes Vehicle Towing and Booting Administrative Rules
The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation proposes amendments to the Vehicle Towing and Booting program (16 Texas Administrative Code, Chapter 86, §86.705; and proposed repeal of §86.213). The proposed amendments and repeal implement changes from Senate Bill 1501 and Senate Bill 2065, 85th Legislature, Regular Session (2017), for the Vehicle Towing and Booting program. Collectively, these bills eliminate the towing operator training license and establish standards of conduct for tow operators engaging in the non-consent relocation of vehicles from one area on a parking facility to another area on the same parking facility.
The proposed rules are published in the May 4, 2018, issue of the Texas Register (43 TexReg 2688). The Department will accept comments on the proposal until June 4, 2018.
