The TT Police Service (TTPS) says it is a necessity for the wrecking (towing) of vehicles that are illegally parked.

In a news release on January 13, the TTPS said it is mandated to ensure public safety, the free flow of traffic and the maintenance of law and order on the nation’s roads.

Vehicles that are parked unlawfully, it added, often pose serious risks, including obstruction to emergency vehicles, reduced visibility for motorists and pedestrians, and impediments to critical access points, such as hospitals, police stations, fire routes and residential areas.
