AN ACT PROTECTING THE OWNERS OF TOWED MOTOR VEHICLES.

SB 847 extends the waiting period before a towing company can sell a towed vehicle from 15 to 60 days. It requires towing companies to prove they made a good-faith effort to contact the vehicle owner before selling the car. This bill directly affects vehicle owners whose cars are towed and stored, and towing companies handling abandoned vehicles. The change aims to give owners more time to reclaim their property before it's sold.
