Is an untaxed vehicle abandoned?
Not necessarily. Of the 1280 vehicles reported to the Council between 1st July 1998 and 30th June 1999 as having been abandoned, only 480 were actually abandoned, i.e. only 38% of the vehicles reported, the remainder were subsequently removed by the owner/keeper. Untaxed vehicles should be reported to the untaxed hotline, tel 01702 469449.
