Relating to obtaining title to abandoned or junked motor vehicles abandoned on the property or place of business of an automobile dealer

Summary

The bill revises West Virginia’s abandoned‑vehicle rules so that licensed automobile dealers, licensed auctions, motor‑vehicle repair facilities and registered towing companies can apply for a certificate of title and registration for a junked or abandoned vehicle left on their property. It removes the previous $9,500 loan‑value restriction and sets notice, publication and reclamation procedures for owners and lienholders.
