NC Towing Reform Passes House | Winston–Salem News

North Carolina just took a major step toward protecting drivers from predatory towing practices—thanks to a sweeping new law backed by Rep. Sam Watford. House Bill 199, approved by a landslide 109-1 vote, creates a new Towing and Recovery Commission to regulate towing companies, cap fees, and enforce transparency with clear signage and public records. Unlawful booting, towing, or overcharging will now be classified as unfair trade practices. Key provisions go into effect as early as July 2026, giving businesses time to adapt. This landmark reform marks a critical win for consumer rights—and it’s only the beginning. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
