Bill Summary
CONCERNING THE RIGHTS OF A PERSON WITH OWNERSHIP INTEREST IN A VEHICLE THAT HAS BEEN TOWED FROM PRIVATE PROPERTY WITHOUT THE PERSON'S CONSENT, AND, IN CONNECTION THEREWITH, MAKING AN APPROPRIATION.
AI Summary
This bill proposes several key changes related to the rights of vehicle owners whose vehicles are towed without their consent from private property. It requires towing companies to provide written notice and follow certain procedures before towing a vehicle, limits the fees they can charge, and prohibits them from placing liens on the contents of the vehicle. The bill also grants vehicle owners new rights to retrieve their vehicle and belongings, and allows them to recover damages and attorney's fees if the towing company fails to comply with the law. Additionally, the bill gives the Public Utilities Commission increased authority to regulate the towing industry and address harmful towing practices.
