Pennsylvania SB1049 amends vehicle title transfer rules for salvage dealers and scrap metal processors.

Pennsylvania SB1049 amends Title 75 of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes to modify the process for transferring vehicle titles to salvage dealers and scrap metal processors. It allows vehicle salvage dealers and scrap metal processors to purchase vehicles from insurers without obtaining a certificate of title or salvage certificate, provided the vehicle is intended for recycling, dismantling, or scrap. The bill requires these entities to submit specific information to the department within five business days of the transfer.
