Oh, cops certainly do have the right to tow your vehicle and take you to the next police office, where you spend maybe 2-3 hours of processing. I can tell you, it's a boatload of bureaucracy and they won't let you out until it's all done.

They can also impound your vehicle, depending on the modifications and their mood. I used to ride heavily modded motorcycles - all the entries would need a second sheet in the papers. That was always great fun to see the traffic patrol compare serial numbers for air intake, exhaust, lights, indicaters, ... especially when it was wet and they had to crawl on the ground.

That has nothing to do with going to jail, nor the EU.
A whole load of both public and private organisations have the right to tow your vehicle for many, many things, like simply parking in the wrong place, and you have to do the paperwork.
At this point you're essentially just arguing that if you break you countries local laws you have to deal with the police... mmm.
