tion. (1) Before a vehicle immobilization company immobilizes a vehicle, the company shall document the vehicle's condition and the reason for the immobilization by:

1. (a) Taking at least one photograph with a resolution of at least two thousand pixels by at least two thousand pixels that shows the vehicle immobilization device and the entire portion of the vehicle to which it is attached; and

2. (b) Taking at least one photograph that shows the reason for the vehicle being immobilized. The photograph must:

   1. (I) Show the position of the vehicle in relation to the reason, including any sign, that the vehicle was immobilized; and
   2. (II) Be rendered in a resolution of at least two thousand pixels by at least two thousand pixels.

   3. (2)

      1. (a) Upon demand by an authorized or interested person, the vehicle immobilization company shall provide copies of the photographs required to be taken by subsection (1) of this section to the authorized or interested person.

      2. (b)

         1. (I) A rebuttable presumption that a vehicle immobilization company damaged a vehicle is created by evidence that:

            1. (A) The vehicle immobilization company has failed to produce photographs of the vehicle's condition in compliance with subsection (2)(a) of this section; and
            2. (B) The vehicle has suffered damage.
         2. (II) A vehicle immobilization company's failure to produce a photograph of the reason for the immobilization in compliance with subsection (2)(a) of this section creates a rebuttable presumption that the vehicle immobilization company did not have authorization to immobilize a vehicle.
