If there is any information they have for why they would not be responsible, he would need to hear that. Without an explanation, the assessment will need to be approved. Mr. Strathman asked is there some reason why the pazents could not have towed the vehicle away. Ms. Mean responded they could not remove the car because it was inoperabie.
