Removal of vulnerable person or domestic animal from motor vehicle—Civil liability for vehicle damage

A person who enters a motor vehicle, by force or otherwise, for the purpose of removing a vulnerable person or domestic animal is immune from civil liability for damage to the motor vehicle if the person: (1) Determines the motor vehicle is locked or there is otherwise no reasonable method for the vulnerable person or domestic animal to exit the motor vehicle without assistance; (2) Has a good faith and reasonable belief, based upon the known circumstances, that entry into the motor vehicle is necessary because the vulnerable person or domestic animal is in imminent danger of suffering harm; (3) Ensures that law enforcement is notified or 911 called before entering the motor vehicle; (4) Uses no more force to enter the motor vehicle and remove the vulnerable person or domestic animal than is necessary; and(5) Remains with the vulnerable person or domestic animal in a safe location, in reasonable proximity to the motor vehicle, until law enforcement, animal control, or other first responders arrive.
