   E. The real property owner, legal possessor or authorized agent and
   the wrecker vehicle driver shall jointly, and each in the presence of
   the other, inventory personal property found within or upon the
   vehicle and each shall accordingly sign a statement on the form

   inventory cannot be completed, the reasons therefor shall be clearly
   stated on the form.
   
   F. A copy of the completed Tow Request and Authorization Form shall be
   retained by the signatories and the wrecker or towing service shall
   maintain the wrecker vehicle driver's copy for not less than one (1)
   year, or longer if required by the Department. The wrecker or towing
   service shall forthwith send the completed original Tow Request and
   Authorization Form to the Department and the remaining copy of the

   vehicle. The Tax Commission or appropriate motor license agent shall
   respond in person or by certified mail to the wrecker or towing
   service within five (5) business days from the receipt of the request

   ownership, if needed. The wrecker or towing service shall, within
   seven (7) days from receipt of the requested information from the
   Oklahoma Tax Commission or other motor license agent, send a notice of
   the location of the vehicle by certified mail, postage prepaid, at the
   addresses furnished, to the owner and any lienholder of the vehicle.
   The owner or lienholder may regain possession of the vehicle in
   accordance with rules of the Department upon payment of the wrecker or
   towing services, costs of certified mailing and the reasonable cost of
   towing and storage of the vehicle. If the wrecker or towing service
   has not complied with the notification procedures required by this
   subsection, the owner or lienholder shall not be required to pay for
   storage of the vehicle.
   
   H. No wrecker or towing service or operator of a wrecker or towing
   service shall tow or cause to be towed a vehicle pursuant to this
   section until the form furnished by the Department has been
   appropriately completed by the parties as required by rules of the
   Department.
