Officers have the authority and the responsibility to ensure the safe and efficient flow of traffic on streets and highways. This sometimes requires that vehicles be removed/towed to places of safety. Actions will be governed by 625 ILCS 5 § 4-201 and 625 ILCS 5 § 4-203(b), which cover abandoned, lost, stolen or unclaimed vehicles.
