Real failure is the unwillingness to spend resources to track the stolen vehicles and apprehend the responsible. UK is an island, proper tracking in ports of exit and quick response should be possible.
Or just add enough surveillance so you can track the stolen cars to logical points where they dissapear.
- mathw 2y agoSure, search every outbound shipping container in case it's got a stolen car in it. Super practical. And what about the cars which are stolen and then broken up and sold as parts? That's fairly common. And the ones which are given false plates and resold - perfectly doable if nobody checks the VIN - and never leave the country. Just because we're an island doesn't make it easy. But we do need to spend more resources on crime prevention and the apprehension of criminals, we've known that for years but we've also kept electing governments who refuse to do it while also claiming to be "tough on crime" so it's the usual mess.
