What’s in it
AI summary When a police officer or a private company takes an abandoned vehicle, they must still notify the owner and any lienholders. However, they no longer have to send a notice to people who own personal items found inside the car, nor do they have to list those items in the notice. People can still come to reclaim any personal property they find inside the vehicle.1
Read the official explanation
Current law requires a police authority or private entity that takes into custody an abandoned vehicle to notify, within days, by certified mail, the last known registered owner of the vehicle, all lienholders of record, and any other known claimant to the vehicle or to personal property found in the vehicle, addressed to the parties’ last known addresses of record, that the abandoned vehicle has been taken into custody, along with other specific details concerning the abandoned vehicle. This bill eliminates the requirement to provide notice to the claimants of any personal property found in the vehicle. The bill eliminates the requirement to describe the personal property found in the vehicle in the notice that is otherwise required by law. A person may still reclaim any personal property located inside the vehicle.89(3).
