What are the procedures for storage of seized vehicles and the charges that will be applied?
A. There is a relevant statutory instrument which covers these issues, SSI 2005 No.80 – The Police (Retention & Disposal of Motor Vehicles) (Scotland) Regulations 2005. This covers all the relevant regulations regarding seizure of vehicles. The regulations outline where the police will take the vehicle, how long they will keep it, the cost to get the vehicle back (105 in respect of the motor vehicle’s removal plus 12 for each period of 24 hours or a part thereof which the vehicle is held by the retaining authority) etc.
