Why would a vehicle be seized?
Unlicensed Drivers:
•A uniformed officer requires a person to produce his/her driving licence and its counterpart (if applicable) for examination if requested.
•If the person fails to produce them, and the officer has reasonable grounds for believing a motor vehicle is or was being driven by the person other than in accordance with a driving licence for that class of vehicle, the vehicle will be seized.
Uninsured Drivers:
•A uniformed officer requires a person to produce evidence that a motor vehicle is not or was not being driven without a valid certificate of insurance to cover its use.
•If the person fails to produce such evidence, and the officer has reasonable grounds for believing the vehicle is or was being driven without a valid certificate of insurance to cover its use, the vehicle will be seized.
Drivers who fail to stop:
•A uniformed officer requires a person driving a motor vehicle to stop the vehicle when requested.
•If the person fails to stop the vehicle when requested, or fails to stop the vehicle long enough, the vehicle could be seized.
•This also applies to drivers who stop but then make off on foot.
Obstruction or Dangerous to other road users:
•Attending officers will give the driver a reasonable time to remove their vehicle if it is causing an obstruction. If not, the vehicle could be recovered.
For use as evidence:
•Under the Police and Criminal Evidence Act 1984 (PACE) police can recover any evidence at a crime scene.
What happens to seized vehicles?
A seized car will be impounded and the owner then typically has 14 days to reclaim the vehicle. In order to do so, the owner will have to present proof that they have a valid insurance policy that covered impounded vehicles. If you haven’t contacted the police within 14 days then they’re entitled to assume you will not be collecting the vehicle and dispose of the vehicle. In some circumstances (and providing you make contact beforehand) you may be able to arrange for the vehicle to be kept impounded for collection later than the 14 days at the discretion of the impound and in exceptional circumstances.
