Many jurisdictions such as the cities of Chicago and New York have strict parking ordinances. When these ordinances are violated, or a series of unpaid tickets exist, a tow truck is dispatched to hook the vehicle and take it to impound. Impound is a lot where vehicles are locked and kept until the unpaid balance of tickets and fees is paid.
