i have heard of some companies charging $500 for the tow and like $75-100 per day if you are towed for a dui. really a great way to rip ya off!! the above prices sound about right though. not to be a jerk, but i honestly, truely believe that tow truck drivers are scum of the earth tying only lawyers!! when i use the word hate, it is honestly meant in this situation.
was he caught in WA? cause if he was, RCW will make sure to send him on vacation to Walla Walla, because 3rd time DUI + possession of a loaded weapon leads to additional allegations such as some anticipatory crimes( criminal attempt more likely). the problem is that the prosecutors dont need to prove anything beyond the fact that he is a recidivist (3rd DUI) and carried a loaded gun. I am sure prosecutors will go after him.
Here's the thing... I'd be alright getting his CAR out of impound, and letting HIM sit, but I just don't know the guy well enough to put my money up on a gamble like that.
I hope he's alright, I hope he learns his lesson, and I hope that everything ends up working out well. That's the best I'm willing to put forth.

OUCH!
TEN YEARS!
Beyond Jail Time: Washington's new DUI laws now prescribe ignition interlock and electronic home monitoring as additional sanctions for DUI drivers.
Ignition Interlock: An ignition interlock device attaches a breath-alcohol analyzer to a vehicle's ignition system. All DUI offenders (except first-time offenders with a BAC below .15) are required to have an ignition interlock device on the cars they drive. When the ignition interlock device is installed on a vehicle the driver is required to blow into the device which reads the person's BAC level. If alcohol is detected. then the engine will not start. After starting the car the driver is required to take the breath test every ten minutes while operating the vehicle. The device also keeps a record of every breath test result and generates a report that is sent to the courts.
The amount to time a DUI offender is required to have ignition interlock on his or her car varies according to previous offenses. The first-time offender with a BAC above .15 will be required to have ignition interlock for one year. the second-time offender will be required to have ignition interlock for five years; and the third-time offender will be required to have ignition interlock for no less than ten years. The offender will be required to pay the cost of the ignition interlock rental which is about $2 a day. A court may waive the requirement for ignition interlock if the device is not reasonably available in the local area.
Electronic Home Monitoring: In most cases, the court will require from 60 to 150 days of electronic home monitoring be added to the minimum sentence of repeat DUI offenders. The number of days required will be determined by the offender's BAC level upon arrest and the offender's previous DUI conviction record. The court may substitute 15 days of electronic home monitoring for the minimum one day in jail. Offenders pay for electronic home monitoring, which costs between $8 and $12 a day. Restriction? An alcohol consumption and requirements to take breath tests may be included in the requirement of home monitoring.

at an AutoX earlier this yr I was doing Tech inspection and a RX-8 had one of those in it...I didn't know what it was at first and tried to get the guy to take it out (it was only Velcro'd in place) - makes sense why he said it couldn't be removed!
