Relates to abandoned vehicles

This bill updates the rules for handling abandoned vehicles by raising the monetary threshold for immediate seizure and ownership transfer to local authorities from one thousand dollars to three thousand dollars. The change applies specifically to vehicles without license plates that are valued at three thousand dollars or less based on their wholesale worth and current condition. Under the new provisions, local governments can immediately take title to these vehicles without needing to go through a longer process, provided the cars are not being sold as junk, dismantled for parts, or destroyed. The legislation also clarifies that this immediate transfer of ownership does not apply if the vehicle is intended for salvage or other non-operational disposal.
