(a) Content of form
The Chief of Police shall develop a "wrecker selection form" which shall:
(1) Contain a statement by the owner of the disabled vehicle designating in blank spaces therein the wrecker company (a company authorized under this chapter to engage in the wrecker business) which he desires to remove the disabled vehicle and the place to which he desires said vehicle removed;
(2) Contain a list of charges authorized by this chapter for rotation operators;
(3) Contain a statement authorizing any police officer to call the designated wrecker company to remove the disabled vehicle;
(4) Contain a statement in the alternative that the owner has no preference as to a wrecker company and authorizes any police officer to call the wrecker service under contract to the city and that he desires the vehicle to be removed to the place designated by him in the blank spaces therein; and
(5) Provide space for signature of the owner of the vehicle.
(b) Use of form
(1) When a police officer investigating an accident determines that any vehicle involved in an accident or collision upon a public street is unable to proceed safely under its own power, or when the owner thereof is physically unable to drive such vehicle, such officer shall request the owner to designate on a wrecker selection form the wrecker company the owner desires to remove the vehicle. Such designation by the owner shall be indicated on said form and when completed shall be signed by the owner. The police officer shall give a copy of the authorization thus made on the form to the owner and shall retain for record the original thereof. Upon leaving duty on the same day, the police officer shall place such original in a well-bound book in the police department provided for that purpose.
(2) When the owner has designated the wrecker company desired, the police officer shall communicate the fact immediately to police department headquarters and it shall be the duty of the officer receiving such information at headquarters to call the designated company to send a wrecker to the scene of the accident or collision.
