Idaho State Statutes - Idaho Attorney Directory

Any towing firm, employee or agent thereof called to the scene of an accident
or disabled vehicle by an authorized officer and requested to remove a
vehicle, shall remove the vehicle and take it to the nearest garage or other
place of safety as directed by the officer or, except as otherwise provided in
this chapter, shall take the vehicle to such place as the owner or his
authorized agent may reasonably request. The towing firm, employee or agent
shall not be entitled to recover any storage, impound fees or other fees,
except the scheduled tow fee, if the firm, employee or agent:
(1) Removes the vehicle to a place other than as directed by the officer
or as reasonably requested by the owner or his authorized agent; or
(2) After removing the vehicle, refuses to release the vehicle to the
owner or his authorized agent for any reason other than the refusal of the
owner or authorized agent to pay the fees to which the towing firm is lawfully
entitled. The refusal of the owner or his authorized agent to pay fees to
which the towing firm, employee or agent is not entitled pursuant to this
subsection, shall not be cause for the towing firm, employee or agent to
refuse to release the vehicle.
