I’m not sure they can charge you $110 for hooking up your car to a tow truck and threatening to tow it away.
This comes from the website of the NYC Department of Consumer Affairs. (at nyc.gov use the pull down menu on left for consumer affairs – or search for “towing fees”)
============================================================
Towing rates from private parking lot
– Towing and three days of storage: $100
– Fourth day of storage and after: $10 per day
– “Drop fee” (for unhooking a car that is about to be towed): $50
If your car is towed for blocking a driveway, the maximum fee is $100 plus tax and $10 per day storage fee after three days.
WHO TO CALL WHEN YOUR CAR IS…
They must remove the boot within 30 minutes, must accept payment by credit card, and may charge no more than $25.
If your car is booted and towed from a private parking lot, the maximum fee is $25. If the car is towed from a private lot without booting, the maximum fee is $100.
There is no maximum rate for booting on private streets. The booting fee for private streets must be on file with Consumer Affairs. The fee must be conspicuously posted on signs at all entry access streets that intersect with public streets.
