Description

Restoration of certain highways; payment of costs. Clarifies that public safety agencies may, following a motor vehicle accident or incident, restore the highway to its condition prior to the accident. The bill does not affect current law authorizing the removal of vehicles, cargo, and personal property without the consent of the owner or carrier. The bill clarifies that the owner or carrier of the vehicle, cargo, or personal property removed is responsible for paying all costs billed for removing the property and restoring the highway and adds individuals or entities acting at the request of State Police or a local law-enforcement agency to the list of entities that must be reimbursed or paid. Current law provides for the reimbursement of such costs. Amends § 46.2-1212.1, of the Code of Virginia. Read the Bill »
