Regulation 27 Power to remove motor vehiclesI1
England and Wales
A charging scheme may provide for an authorised person, where—
an immobilisation device has been fixed to a motor vehicle in accordance with regulation 25 and any of the charges described in regulation 25(5)(e)(ii) remain unpaid; or
irrespective of whether the motor vehicle has been immobilised—
none of the circumstances in regulation 25(2) apply; and
the conditions in regulation 25(3) apply,
to remove a motor vehicle and deliver it to a custodian for storage.
A motor vehicle removed by virtue of paragraph (1) may be driven, towed or removed by an authorised person by such means as are reasonable in the circumstances and any necessary steps may be taken in relation to the motor vehicle in order to facilitate its removal.
The contents of a motor vehicle removed by virtue of this regulation may be removed by an authorised person, or a person acting under the authorised person’s direction, from the motor vehicle where—
it is reasonable to do so to facilitate removal of the motor vehicle;
there is good reason for storing them at a different place from the motor vehicle; or
their condition requires them to be disposed of without delay.
