49-1802 - PRESUMPTION
(1) The abandonment of any vehicle shall create a
prima facie presumption that the last registered owner of record is
responsible for the abandonment and is thereby liable for the costs incurred
in the removal, storage and disposition of the vehicle, less any amount
received from the disposition of the vehicle.
(2) The owner of any vehicle removed under extraordinary circumstances is
presumed responsible for the vehicle and is thereby liable for the costs
incurred in the removal, storage and disposition of the vehicle, less any
amounts received from the disposition of the vehicle.
(3) If a vehicle is found abandoned or under extraordinary circumstances
and is removed at the direction of any authorized officer, and is not redeemed
by the owner or lienholder within seven (7) days of the tow, the last
registered owner of record is guilty of a traffic infraction, unless the owner
has filed a release of liability with the department according to section
49-526, Idaho Code, in which case the transferee shown on the release of
liability shall be guilty of a traffic infraction.
