When a car isn’t where you left it, there’s usually a series of steps — involving confusion, panic and anger. Then you have to find out where it is.
The Baltimore Department of Transportation on Monday launched Find My Tow, which has info about where a car was towed, and how much it’s going to cost to get it back. It’s pretty basic.
Find My Tow
The site requires vehicle owners to enter a license number and the state where the vehicle is registered. Then owners can find out whether it was towed. It also has info about associated fees, and a fee calculator so you know what you owe.
If your car got towed, you’ll probably still be mad. But at least you’ll know where it is. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
