Summary

The bill lets anyone who tows a motor vehicle report it as unclaimed right after towing, instead of waiting five days. It also requires the reporter to check the vehicle’s title status, notify the owner or lienholder, and triggers a 60‑day hold on the title. These steps aim to protect owners and prevent unauthorized title issuance.
