Tow truck drivers now required to declare maximum fees
News for the Department of Transport
Amendments to the Road Traffic (Vehicles) Regulations 2014 have been made as part of the Western Australian Government's ongoing tow truck industry reform, which introduce consumer protections for vulnerable road users involved in an accident, along with updating technical standards and inspection requirements for tow trucks.
From 7 November 2022, WA tow truck drivers will be required to declare the maximum fees that will be charged for the towing, salvage, and storage of a vehicle before the vehicle is towed.
