AI Summary
This bill amends existing laws to require owners or operators of motor vehicle storage facilities to notify the registered owner and any lienholder when a vehicle is involuntarily towed and stored. The bill specifies that if the registered owner does not claim the vehicle within 14 days, or if the notice is undeliverable, the storage facility must notify the lienholder and, if the vehicle is not claimed within 30 days, the storage facility may sell the vehicle at public or private auction after proper notice. The bill also clarifies that the storage facility's notification and disposal procedures apply to motor vehicles removed from accident scenes and placed in storage by law enforcement.
