My care was recently towed and i have no intrest in recovering it. The towing company is threating to have a lien placed on my drivers liscense??? can this be done?


A lien, well, this towing company needs to look up the definition of 'lien', lol, do they think they can recover money from your drivers license? I think not. lolol

Lien:
When a creditor or bank has the right to sell the mortgaged or collateral property of those who fail to meet the obligations of a loan contract.

In the State of Florida a towing company can place a lein on a drivers license for unpaid monies owed to the company. While this will not suspend your drivers license it will prevent you from registering another vehichle or renewing your tag until the lein is satisfied.

A lien is the legal claim of one person upon the property of another person to secure the payment of a debt or the satisfaction of an obligation. There is no monetary value to a driver's license and there would be no purpose in putting a "lien" on a driver's license. If the state of FL is calling a note or warning put on the driver's license a "lien," they're misusing the word.
Generally, towing companies will put a lien on the title to your vehicle in order to ensure payment.
