West Virginia HB4558 allows towing companies to quickly access driver registration information to limit charges to vehicle owners.

West Virginia HB4558 amends the Uniform Motor Vehicle Records Disclosure Act to ensure towing companies regulated by the Public Service Commission can access driver registration information on demand. The Division of Motor Vehicles must alter its services by July 1, 2026, to meet this requirement, potentially by designing a new portal. This change aims to limit charges to vehicle owners that accumulate while tow companies seek owner information.
