Have you ever seen a bright orange tag stuck on a car’s windshield or rear window and wondered what it really means? These tags aren’t decoration—they carry an important message.
Why Do Authorities Place Orange Tags?
Local law enforcement places orange tags on vehicles. They target cars that appear abandoned, inoperable, or pose a hazard to the community. The main goal? To start the process of impounding these vehicles. Rules vary by state and city, but common reasons for tagging a car as abandoned include:
Inoperable Condition: If a vehicle looks broken down, missing wheels, or suffers major damage, it may get tagged.
Long-Term Parking: Leaving a car parked in the same spot for days or weeks raises suspicion.
Safety Hazards: Cars that block traffic, cause danger, or sit in unsafe locations may be marked for removal.
How Quickly Can a Car Be Tagged?
Timing matters. Some states consider a vehicle abandoned after just 72 hours. Others allow a slightly longer window, but it’s generally a short timeframe. This means vehicle owners must act fast once they see a tag.
