Booted Vehicles
If your vehicle has three or more outstanding tickets, it may be immobilized with a wheel “boot.” If you don’t pay your outstanding tickets — along with the boot fee — within 24 hours of your vehicle’s booting, your vehicle will be towed, and you’ll incur additional tow and storage fees.
