Modifies provisions relating to towing
HB 3447 requires commercial motor vehicles with a gross vehicle rating over 26,000 pounds to carry at least $100,000 in insurance coverage for towing, vehicle recovery, and emergency roadside assistance. This coverage must be documented in the vehicle and provided to state authorities upon request. The bill also updates procedures for towing companies handling abandoned property: they must notify owners and lienholders within 10 business days by certified mail, detailing towing/storage costs and their lien claim. These changes clarify insurance requirements and improve transparency for vehicle owners and lienholders.
