Add a tow bill to the confusion and it gets worse fast. Here is who pays, what it costs, and what to do right now so you do not get stuck with a charge that should have landed on someone else.</p> <blockquote> <p><strong>Quick Answer:</strong> After a freeway accident in Houston, towing typically runs $125 to $350 for a local haul, more if your car requires a flatbed or gets moved to a police-impound lot. If the other driver was at fault, their liability insurance covers your tow. Your own collision or roadside assistance coverage handles it if you were at fault or the other driver is uninsured. Do not sign anything or move your car until you know who is paying.</p>
