| Comment | The police aren’t interested unless it’s a moving vehicle. The DVLA will clamp it and leave it in your street forever. The council aren’t bothered unless it poses a danger. Your report a few weeks ago is far too optimistic. The authorities will attempt to contact the owner and give them 28 days to reply and another period of time to actually remove the vehicle. If they don’t respond they are not going to be rushing to the scene to remove them either. Unless of course one of the local neds decides to launch a brick through the windows.
[A vehicle is considered to be abandoned if it meets the following criteria: the vehicle structure/glass has been damaged by vandalism as opposed to damage caused by a road traffic accident or the vehicle has unsecured doors, boot open. the vehicle has been partially or fully burnt out a car is NOT abandoned if it does not meet the above criteria. untaxed vehicles should be referred to the Driver Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) for enforcement.](https://www.glasgow.gov.uk/index.aspx?articleid=16991) |
