Can the tow yard put a hold on your license if you come and get car pay fees?

In most states, a tow yard can put a hold on your license for outstanding fees. This is also commonly referred to as "impound" or "license hold." This can happen even if you have already come and gotten your car from the tow yard and paid some or all of the fees.

The exact laws vary from state to state, but the general idea is that the tow yard can hold your license until all outstanding fees have been paid in full. This includes the cost of towing, storage, and any other related fees.

If you are unable to pay the fees in full, you may be able to work out a payment plan with the tow yard. This will vary from tow yard to tow yard, so you will need to contact them directly to find out what options are available.

If you fail to pay the fees or make any arrangements to pay them, the tow yard may eventually take legal action against you, which could result in a judgment against you or even a suspended license.

It is important to note that the laws surrounding impounded vehicles and license holds can be complex and vary from state to state. If you find yourself in this situation, it is best to consult with a legal professional to understand your rights and responsibilities.
