Does your full coverage auto insurance cover vehicle in tow as well?

If your vehicle was towed from a no parking spot and your vehicle is damaged in the process who is responsible?
The towing company (contractor) is responsible for any damage it causes while removing a car from a public street, and the municipality may have liability if it has its own employees tow vehicles, rather than a contractor. You may also find a sign on private property that says, "Unauthorized vehicles towed at owner's risk and expense." Oddly enough, this means what it says, and you have "assumed the risk" of damage and agreed to pay the reasonable expenses of towing (and storage) when you trespassed on such a parking spot.

Does auto policy cover damage done when the vehicle towing the utility trailer is damaged?
In dealing with a towed trailer, the liability coverage will extend from the vehicle towing to the trailer being towed but the physical damage coverage does not extend. This means that if you are backing up at a fuel station and the trailer backs into another vehicle then the liability will cover the damage done to the other car that is damaged by the trailer. Any damage done to the trailer itself will not be covered.

What rights when vehicle has been towed?
If it were being towed away because someone failed to make the payments due, then there are no "rights" as you simple do not own the car ... and never have ... until the final payment is made, the finance company owns the car as they hold the legal title.
