(3) Damages recovered for party in interest. In a court action arising from a nonconsensual tow, any authorized or interested person may recover the damages suffered by another authorized or interested person from a towing carrier if the person who recovers the damages reimburses the other authorized or interested person for the damages suffered by the authorized or interested person. A court may issue an order implementing this subsection (3).
