If the smuggled car is not picked up within 30 days, the public security organ will announce it for 3 months, and then auction it, and the proceeds will be turned over to the state treasury.

Extended data:

On the afternoon of September 7th this year, the police of Nanjing Traffic Police Mobile Squadron 1 patrolled normally near Jason Wu Interchange. When passing through the construction and maintenance section, they found a brand-new Bentley continental sports car illegally parked on the side of the road, which had a great impact on passing vehicles.

The police got off the bus and found that the Bentley sports car had not been officially registered, and a temporary foreign number plate was attached to the glass. Because the owner could not be contacted for a while, in order to alleviate the traffic pressure, the police towed the vehicle back to the brigade parking lot.

After the vehicle was towed back, the owner did not come to the brigade to deal with it, which aroused the suspicion of the police. When the police went to the parking lot to further inspect the vehicles, they made even greater discoveries. After opening the hood of this luxury car, the police found that the frame number and engine number of the vehicle were forged and changed, and the number did not match the information on the temporary number plate placed in the car.

In addition, the frame number and engine number are only printed on a small piece of iron sheet, covering the original number. Li Xin, a policeman of the Traffic Police Brigade, immediately judged that this was an illegally smuggled vehicle.

At present, in Nanjing, all smuggled cars seized by the customs can be auctioned. "Then, Nanjing can also try to auction smuggled cars confiscated by traffic police." However, he said that at the same time as the trial, it is necessary to prevent criminals from taking advantage of loopholes.

In addition, he reminded that if the traffic police confiscate and rob the vehicle, even if it is unclaimed after publicity, according to the property law, the property right has retroactivity and needs to avoid harming the interests of the original owner.

People's Daily Online-Nanjing Traffic Management Bureau found that most smuggled cars were scrapped. Experts suggested an auction.
