All tow truck service and/or tow truck operator licensees shall immediately notify the Clark Regional Communications Agency or Vancouver Police Department of any accident which comes to their attention upon a city street.

In no event shall a licensee move a vehicle from an accident scene unless prior authorization has been given by the police or unless moving the vehicle is necessary to protect the safety of persons or property.

Licensees are responsible for and shall remove from the street, sidewalks or parking strip, any broken glass or other debris resulting from the accident involving the vehicle being towed from the scene.

Licensees shall respond to any accident or emergency scene within twenty minutes of being called to such scene by any persons or agency. Failure to respond within the twenty minutes may be cause for the police department to cancel such tow request and to request a tow from the rotation list maintained for city-dispatched calls. (Ord. M-2507 §21, 1984)
