SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:
Abandoned and salvage vehicles; licensees; penalty. Removes from the definition of "abandoned motor vehicle" a motor vehicle, trailer, or semitrailer that (i) has remained unclaimed in a garage for more than 10 days or (ii) has remained unclaimed in a self-storage unit. The bill provides that any licensee who utilizes machinery to crush a vehicle must apply for a permit if such crushing occurs at a location not specified on the license. The bill also allows law-enforcement officials to examine salvage vehicles that have been repaired or rebuilt for highway use and updates penalties for any violations by licensees.
