What time of day cars are towed
Most illegally parked cars are towed between 12:00 and 14:00 (22.9% of all tows), and the busiest day is Tuesday. A darker cell means more tows.
Based on 266 tows. The time is when the vehicle appears on the LPT list (we check the list every hour, so it is accurate to about an hour).
How long vehicles stay at the car pound
Time from towing to collection for illegally parked vehicles, and an estimate of how much drivers paid for towing and storage.
Time to collection
- up to 3 hours36 (14.1%)
- 3–12 hours52 (20.3%)
- 12–24 hours88 (34.4%)
- 1–3 days53 (20.7%)
- 3–7 days21 (8.2%)
- more than 7 days6 (2.3%)
Estimated payments: €200 for towing plus €10 for each started day of storage, for every vehicle that left the list within 30 days (€224 on average). After 30 days a vehicle is treated as abandoned, so we do not count it as collected. The median and distribution are based on 256 vehicles with a known towing time.
Abandoned vehicles
70 abandoned vehicles have left the list (collected, sold or scrapped), after a median of 14 days.

Distances are measured from the centre of the street to LPT and other car parks listed on ParkinLj, so they are approximate for long streets. On-street parking in the zones is not included.
How we collect the data
LPT publishes a list of the vehicles currently held at its car pound. ParkinLj checks this list every hour and keeps every record, even after the vehicle has been collected and LPT has removed it from the list. This builds an archive of tows from 21 May 2026 onwards. Vehicles that were already at the pound before we started (mostly abandoned ones) are included with the towing date given by LPT. The list of individual vehicles and the search are on the towed cars page.
LPT only gives the street where a vehicle was towed, without a house number. We therefore place each street at its centre point and assign it to the district that contains that point (streets and district boundaries from OpenStreetMap). For long streets that run through several districts (such as Dunajska or Celovška cesta), all tows are assigned to one district.
