Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Forbearance from towing is a promise not to take an action that one is legally entitled to take. In this scenario, Eva is legally entitled to tow vehicles parked in her lot without permission. By forbearing from towing Dave's customers' vehicles, Eva is making a promise of something of value, which is a legally sufficient consideration.
