Why have South Yorkshire police taken to leaving seized cars littered around the town, on the middle of roundabouts, central reservations etc? Said cars are covered in "seized" tape, and plastered with "seized, no insurance, no car" stickers and numberplates.
Surely when they seize a car, the owner has the right to get it back, therefore the police should be taking reasonable care of the vehicle until it can be collected from the pound?
So this begs the question, these cars littered around Doncaster - are they really seized cars or are they cars that are to be sent to the crusher next week because nobody has collected them for a month? Therefore wouldn't it be better to litter cubes around Doncaster? This would surely be more of a deterrant?
