A Different Approach to State
Laws Dealing with End-of-Life
Vehicles, Titles, and NMVTIS
Steve Levetan
Executive Vice President
Millions of cars reach the end of
their life, every year.
•
•
•
•
•
Where do they come from?
Where do they go?
How do they get there?
How do we know?
How can we cooperatively facilitate
their transition to their “after-life?”

End of Life Vehicles
• Up to 14 million vehicles scrapped in US annually
•
Hundreds of Thousands of cars scrapped in each
State (Many still unaccounted for)
• Sources – Two major categories:
Late Model
Older “End-of-Life” or “Junk”
Disposition
 Late Model
 Insurance Salvage (accident) Vehicles
• Typically sold through auctions
(“salvage pools” CoPart / IAA) to:
• Full Service Auto Recyclers
• Self Service Auto Recyclers

End-of-Life (10+ years old)
• Used Parts Recyclers (full and self service)
• Scrap Recyclers / crushers
• Shredders
Auto Parts Recycler (Salvage/Dismantler) –
Full Service Sector
• Buys cars primarily from Salvage Pools, but also from
other sources – Most with Salvage Title
• Stores vehicles for later parts removal
Inventory may be whole/damaged cars, or
• Dismantles vehicles, removing salable parts
Inventory consists of parts ready for sale
• Sells to individuals, body shops, garages, internet
Often networked inventory
• Ultimately, remainder of vehicle is crushed/sold to
Shredder for scrap
Auto Parts Recycler (Salvage/Dismantler) –
Self Serve Sector (U-Pull-It) / Pull-A-Part®
• Vehicles purchased from a variety of sources
• Vehicles typically older, end-of-life (as opposed to
Insurance salvage) – Much Lower Value (Scrap)
• Vehicles rarely (if ever) resold as vehicles
• Customers are individuals, body shops and garages
Caters to do-it-yourself market
• After parts removed, vehicles typically crushed
• Crushed vehicles sold to shredders, as scrap
Scrap Recyclers/Shredders
• Every End-of-Life vehicle ultimately
ends up at a Shredder
• May or may not go to Parts Recycler first
• May or may not go to a Scrap
Recycler/Crusher first
• Often crushed or shredded shortly after
receipt

Why?
• Since these vehicles are purchased for scrap
value only, there is no care taken in
unloading/storage
Scrap Recyclers vs. Parts
Recyclers
• Parts Recycler purchases for value of parts
plus scrap
• Scrap Recycler purchases for scrap value
only
• Both may buy “whole cars” and that purchase
must be treated the same under the law
• Crushed cars (mechanically flattened) are no
longer “motor vehicles”
• Why are cars “flattened?”
• Watch for “cross-over” between industries
NMVTIS – Applicable to both parts and
scrap recyclers
Part of the Anti-Car Theft Act of 1992
Promptly Implemented by DOJ in 2009
(after Court Order)
Rules were quickly implemented
NMVTIS is a National Title Data Base To combat:
Title Fraud (Title Washing)
Auto Theft
Vin Cloning
Consumer Fraud
Odometer Fraud
National Motor Vehicle Title Information
System – NMVTIS
A “simple” system
State Laws Regarding EOL Vehicles
Theory
Every car should always have a title
Reality
Often not the case with older, end of life cars
lost, misplaced, traded/sold multiple times
Owner will not go through process to get a title
(if they can) to then sell for scrap price
Alternative
Create lawful mechanism for sale of these cars
for scrap or parts only, to legitimate parts or scrap
recyclers, providing clear paper trail for LE and
DMV, or…
State Laws Regarding EOL Vehicles
Other Alternative:
Cars sold illegally – “crusher” or chop shop
(no record to cancel title or assist LE)
Sell out of state (same problem as above)
Leave sitting in yard (nuisance, or worse)
Abandon on public property or private property
(costs taxpayer or private property owner)
State Laws Regarding EOL Vehicles
Solution:
Create legitimate means of sale
Affidavit in lieu of title
NY – many years ago
8 year and older and value less than $1,200
affidavit sent to the State to cancel title
Approach now copied in many states with variations
GA, FL, AL, TN, LA, MS, NC, SC, IA
Some work better than others
Does not lead to increased theft of older vehicles
State Laws Regarding EOL Vehicles Examples
NC G.S. 20-62.1 (amended in 2013)
Applicable to cars 10 years old and older
only for scrap or parts and only by
secondary metals recycler or salvage yard
Affidavit (includes info on seller, buyer, and vehicle
and copy of seller’s drivers license/ID
Records retained by recycler
Online stolen check at time of purchase – provides
info to State
There Must be Consequences
Falsification of records (by buyer or seller) is crime
1st offense misdemeanor, then felony
Enforcement tool – Tow Truck subject to forfeiture

State Laws Regarding EOL Vehicles
Georgia 40-3-36, O.C.G.A.
•
Amended in 2011 and 2012
• Applicable to cars and trailers 12 years old and older
only for scrap or parts and only by secondary
metals recycler or Used Motor Vehicle Parts Dealer
• Value $850 or less than $1,700 if a trailer
• Signed Statement includes info on seller, buyer, and
vehicle and copy of seller’s drivers license/ID – must
include buyer’s NMVTIS ID number
• Title sent to the State within 72 hours
• Falsification of records (by buyer or seller) is felony
Additional Changes in Georgia
 Reporting – in 2011, Georgia became first State in US to
require reporting of all NMVTIS data electronically to
the State to create database for LE, and then require MVD
to report the data to NMVTIS on behalf of Scrap/Parts
purchaser (“JSI”)
 Innovative implementation by State –
Contract with Auto Data Direct (ADD)
 ADD did all system development
 Scrap/Parts Recyclers electronically report to ADD
within 48 hours, at no cost
 ADD sends info to State for title cancellation and to
NMVTIS to comply with Federal requirements
Newest Benefit in Georgia
• DOR/GBI will check each car reported daily against Stolen (NCIC)
• Cars will continue to be checked for “late hits”
• Reporting LE agency (ORI) will be notified, in addition to reporting
Recycler
• Benefit to every agency as no longer necessary to check
individual cars against NMVTIS – fully automated
• Also, ADD will check for duplicate reports for same VIN as
“scrapped” (VIN fraud – more on this later)
• ADD providing list of reporting entities to LE
• ADD providing list of VINs reported by Recycler for purpose
of audits and online access to data
Tennessee
HB 1043 passed in 2015 – Implementation July 1, 2016
 Continues ability to buy cars 12 years and older without
title
 Consensus bill (State/Industry/LE) – Adds important
provisions:
 Mandates reporting of junk/salvage/scrap vehicles to
State
 Requires State to report information to NMVTIS on
behalf of scrap or auto recycler
 Adds substantial penalties for non-compliance,
enforceable by State or local LE (with split of penalties
between State and Local agencies)
 State to do online stolen check (like NC and AL)
 State is contracting with ADD to develop and operate
system (like GA) – on target for July 1 launch
Alabama
 Allows purchase of cars 12 years and older without title
 Must be entered into real-time online system to verify not
stolen and no liens
 System prints statement for seller to sign
 State cancels title
 Must have NMVTIS ID to use system, but currently State
does not report to NMVTIS on behalf of recycler
 Caused confusion – State has all necessary information to
report
 State has indicated that they are willing and able to
report
 Still in discussion/negotiation with NMVTIS operator
Other States Similar Laws
 South Carolina
 New York
 Mississippi
 Indiana
 Louisiana
 Tennessee
 Alabama
71
Bottom Line?
• Only 1/3 of cars Scrapped/Salvaged go through
“traditional” Salvage Auctions
• Up to 8 million cars each year
scrapped/salvaged as “end-of-life”
• We must capture data on these vehicles
• “de-title”
• Law Enforcement (stolen check and VIN
Cloning)
• State Laws we’ve discussed WORK
• Higher Compliance
• Electronic Data Transfer – State/NMVTIS
Next Steps?
States and Recycling Industry should work together to:
• Make NMVTIS reporting a State level requirement
• Single report – for both State and NMVTIS
• Tie to licensing/affidavits
• Enforceable at State level – It Works!
• Ease of Use of NMVTIS for LE
Shorten reporting time (from current 30 days)
• Electronic reporting to State as recently added in GA
AL, TN and NC
• More useful/timely information
• Eliminate dual reporting (State/Federal)
Improve Communication –
Ongoing State/Local Task Force w/ Industry

Total Loss Vehicles in South Carolina
By law, any vehicle that sustains a loss of 75% or more of
the fair market value MUST be declared a total loss.
Vehicle Fair Market Value =
$20,000
Cost to repair including
parts and labor = $15,000
Percentage Damage =
$15,000/$20,000 =
75%
Total Loss Vehicles
Insurance companies may CHOOSE to declare a vehicle a total loss if it has
sustained less than 75% of the fair market value or if the fair market value
of the vehicle was less than $2,000 by submitting a written request in
addition to other required documents.
Vehicle Fair Market Value =
$45,000
Percentage Damage =
$25,000/$45,000
$44%
Written Request Required
Cost to repair including parts
and labor = $25,000
Salvage Brands
All Vehicles declared a total loss are branded as
“salvage” unless:
• The vehicle is marked non-rebuildable; or
• The vehicle has been damaged less than 75% and has
not sustained water or fire damage; or
• The value of the vehicle is less than $2,000; or
• The vehicle has been titled as an antique vehicle.
Rebuildable Vehicles
If the vehicle is rebuildable – that is, it can be repaired
for legal and safe operation – the Department will issue
a new title with the appropriate salvage brand.
Non-Rebuildable Vehicles
If the vehicle is nonrebuildable – that is, it
cannot be repaired for safe
and legal operation – the
Department will junk the
title or issue a Red nonrebuildable title.
SC Salvage Brands
South Carolina has five (5) different salvage brands
(other than Salvage Non-Rebuildable) that can be
applied to vehicle titles:
• Salvage
• Salvage Rebuilt
• Salvage Non-Removable
• Salvage Fire
• Salvage Water
Salvage Rebuilt to Salvage Again
Original Vehicle
Repaired – Salvage Rebuilt
After first wreck -- Salvage
Wrecked again – Salvage Water
Salvage Non-Removable
The Salvage Non-Removable brand is used when a vehicle
that has a Salvage title is transferred from the insurance
company to a new owner and the owner has not presented
proper information indicating the vehicle has been repaired
and inspected. This brand is carried forward to all subsequent
titles.
Also, titles received from out of state that have a “salvage”
brand should be marked salvage non-removable. In addition,
out of state titles branded “salvage rebuildable” will be
assigned a salvage non-removable brand.
Salvage to Salvage Non-Removable
Mary wrecked her brand new Lexus. The
insurance company paid her off and titled
in their name – SALVAGE.
The vehicle is repaired and sold through auction
to a dealership who sells the vehicle to John –
SALVAGE NON-REMOVABLE.
Antique Vehicles
If an antique vehicle meets the requirements to
be designated as antique, the customer must
surrender title to SCDMV so that the Antique
legend can be added to the title.
As long as the title carries the antique legend
prior to damage, the antique vehicle is exempt
from the salvage law.
