Representative Arndt and Representative Liston introduced Senate Bill 17-251. Under current law, a tow carrier who tows abandoned motor vehicles uses an electronic system to access the Department of Revenue's records to determine and notify the motor vehicle's owner or lienholder. The reengrossed bill allows insurers and salvage pools to use the same electronic system to determine a vehicle's owner or lienholder if the vehicle is the subject of an insurance claim processed by the insurer or is possessed by a salvage pool.
