Kentucky HB144 amends laws on motor vehicle titles, particularly for salvage vehicles.

Kentucky HB144 modifies the process for obtaining titles for salvage vehicles, those deemed too damaged to be economically repairable. The bill specifies that a salvage title application must be submitted to the county clerk within fifteen days of receiving necessary paperwork. It outlines conditions under which a vehicle qualifies as a salvage vehicle, such as when repair costs exceed 75% of the vehicle's retail value. The bill also details the process for applying for a salvage title, including the surrender of the original title and the issuance of a new title by the county clerk.
