HB 2286: Stolen vehicles

Correcting language regarding certificates of ownership for stolen vehicles.

Summary

  • $ In conducting a stolen vehicle search of out-of-state vehicles, the Department of Licensing is prohibited from issuing a certificate of ownership for a vehicle that is flagged as reported stolen. However, the department may register a vehicle that is flagged to allow the owner to legally drive it while the Washington State Patrol (WSP) conducts an investigation.
  • $ If the stolen vehicle search finds that an out-of-state vehicle is not reported stolen, or the WSP's investigation confirms that the vehicle is not stolen, the department is authorized to issue a certificate of ownership.
