(a) The registered owner transferred his or her interest in the abandoned vehicle:
(1) Pursuant to the provisions set forth in NRS 482.399 to 482.420, inclusive; or
(2) As indicated by a bill of sale for the vehicle that is signed by the registered owner; or
(b) The vehicle was stolen, if the registered owner submits evidence that, before the discovery of the vehicle, he or she filed an affidavit with the Department or a written report with an appropriate law enforcement agency alleging the theft of the vehicle.
