Arrest is undoubtedly a motorist’s worst nightmare. In addition to having to spend a huge amount of time looking for your car, you will have to pay fines and impound costs.
And it is the amount that must be paid to obtain a car that has just changed according to a ministerial decree published in the Official Journal on Thursday, February 29. entered into force 1Er March.
Metropolises were spared, but…
Under this ordinance, owners will now have to pay 127.65 euros for cleaning their car from the roads, compared to €121.27 previously. But the problems do not end there. If they don’t restore their car quickly, they will be exposed the cost of daily care is 6.75 euros. After three days, even an assessment is required to determine the condition of the vehicle, which will lead to additional costs up to 61 eurosalways the responsibility of the owner.
For residents of large metropolises, the bill will be higher. In cities with more than 400,000 inhabitants, such as Marseille, Lyon or Toulouse, although the cost of transport is the same as elsewhere, i.e. €127.65, the daily care costs rise to €10 per day. But it was in Paris that motorists were most affected by the price increase. In the capital, removal still costs 150 euros, and the cost of day care reaches 29 euros per day.
The pound is modernizing
Also, even if the owner is lucky enough to recover his vehicle before the arresting officers load it onto the truck, he will still have to pay €15.20. It’s impossible to escape unscathed unless you’re lucky!
We would also like to remind you that if, unfortunately, your car has been taken away, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has created a new website which allows motorists to quickly find an impounded car. So, if your car is impounded, the site will tell you exactly where it is.
The platform will send you the exact contact details of the institution.
