Steps to Take When You Spot an Orange Tag on Your Windshield

One morning, Sarah stepped outside her house and spotted a bright orange tag stuck on her car’s windshield. Panic set in—what did this mean? She soon learned that local authorities put these tags on vehicles that look abandoned, broken down, or cause safety problems.
Sarah’s car hadn’t moved for a few days because she was busy with work. But that was enough to catch the city’s attention. The tag was a warning—if she didn’t act fast, her car could be towed.
Determined, Sarah called the local parking office right away. They explained what she needed to do: either fix any issues or move the car immediately. Luckily, her car was fine; she just needed to park somewhere else.
Relieved, Sarah moved her car the same day. She realized these orange tags weren’t just a nuisance—they were serious alerts to protect the community and keep streets safe. From that day on, she always kept an eye out, knowing a little attention could save her from a big headache.
