AB 2437: Impounded vehicles.
The bill aims to amend existing vehicle code laws. It would allow impounded vehicles to be released to the legal owner or their agent after 30 days, as long as they pay all towing and storage fees and present required documents. The bill also prohibits facilities from refusing to release vehicles to those entitled to them and would accept debit cards for payment, without charging a fee. Additionally, it would require current registration to be presented before releasing the vehicle to the registered owner. The bill includes other technical and clarifying changes to improve existing laws.
