Texas SB2246 amends the Texas Transportation Code to redefine "auction sales receipt" and update salvage vehicle dealer responsibilities.

Texas SB2246 amends the Texas Transportation Code to redefine "auction sales receipt" as a document certifying the sale of a motor vehicle at auction by a law enforcement agency or public sale for a lien foreclosure. The bill also updates the responsibilities of salvage vehicle dealers, requiring them to submit a report within 31 days of acquiring a nonrepairable or salvage motor vehicle, along with the appropriate ownership documents. The Texas Department of Motor Vehicles must issue a receipt for these documents and notify dealers if a vehicle has a record of title but no printed title.
