Do You Have to Use the Tow Truck That Shows Up?
No. At a NSW accident scene the car goes where you say. Read the towing authority before you sign, and write the destination yourself. “Stow Smash Repairs, 35 Hotham Parade, Artarmon” fits on the line. For the full towing service and process, see Towing →
What’s Actually on That Form
A tow truck driver needs your signed authority before towing from an accident scene. The destination line is yours to complete, and no driver can fill it in for you or assume you’ve agreed to their yard.
Trucks That Arrive Uninvited
Trucks that show up without being called are chasing the job, not helping you. You’re under no obligation to sign anything for a truck you didn’t request.
The Holding Yard Trap
If a car does end up in a holding yard, storage fees accrue daily. Confirm the fees, authorise release to your chosen repairer, and move the car as soon as you reasonably can.
