Reporting an accident
Call police immediately for injury or death or when a vehicle cannot be normally and safely driven; an officer files a report for injury death or apparent property damage of $1000 or more. [statutes.capitol.texas.gov]
Accident Report Copy
Brownsville Police Records accepts written report requests by letter memo fax or in person at 600 E. Jackson Street; copies cost 10¢ per page and certified copies cost $2.00 each. [brownsvilletx.gov]
Parking
Parking tickets must be paid or contested within 10 calendar days before the amount doubles; 3 or more unpaid offenses in a calendar year can trigger towing from public property. [brownsvilletx.gov]
Impounds: finding & releasing your car
Call the telephone number on the tow-away sign to locate a privately towed vehicle; a storage facility accepting cars 24 hours a day must allow access within one hour. [web1.tdlr.texas.gov]
Who to call
Brownsville Police non-emergency is 956-548-7000; the linked city page does not publish a Texas Highway Patrol number. [brownsvilletx.gov]
Fees
Statewide maximum private-property tow fees are $272 for vehicles weighing 10000 pounds or less and $380 for vehicles from 10001 through 24999 pounds; daily storage is capped at $22.85 for vehicles 25 feet or shorter. [tdlr.texas.gov]
Private-property towing
Texas treats towing from a tow-away zone or property without permission as a private-property tow; before the vehicle leaves the lot the owner owes no charge if it is not fully hooked and a drop fee if fully hooked. [web1.tdlr.texas.gov]
