Summary

The bill obligates vehicle owners to notify the Department of Licensing within 15 days when a vehicle is destroyed and makes a gross misdemeanor of any later reporting. Insurers must also report total‑loss vehicles within 15 days of settling a claim and can do so electronically, without needing a notarized signature to transfer ownership. It adds a market‑value threshold for older vehicles and updates power‑of‑attorney rules for these transfers.
