Compulsory private Lexa rescue agreement
In July 2020, when towing a private wrecker, the government requires the driver to sign a document called “Rescue Consent” before towing. If you use a hook to tow a private wrecker car without obtaining a rescue consent form, an administrative disposition of 10 days suspension of operation of the private wrecker will be issued. Drivers who have been in an accident should be aware of this and use the free tow truck service or an agreed-upon private wrecker.
