(b) If an insurance company or its authorized agent is unable 

to obtain the certificate of title from the owners(s) or lienholder 

within thirty days from the settlement of the property damages 

claim, the insurance company or its authorized agent may submit 

an application for a salvage title and signed under penalty of 

perjury, which application shall be accompanied by all of the 

following: 

(i) Evidence acceptable to the office of motor vehicles that 

the insurance company has made at least two written attempts to

(iii)The fee applicable to the issuance of a salvage title. 

(iv) A release of lien executed by each current holder of a 

security interest in the motor vehicle. 

(c) Upon receipt of an application for a salvage title

for the purposes of this demonstration, no rebuilt and restored 

vehicle shall be operated upon any public street, roadway, or
