An area where vehicles impounded by the police are stored. Also known as a towing yard or impoundment lot.
In some jurisdictions, improperly parked vehicles are towed and impounded by a certified agency, rather than the police. It is unclear whether police=car pound also applies for such cases. A suggested alternative amenity=car pound has a low usage count.
How to map
