Thank you, excellent information, I'll explain a bit more about the situation, this happened back in 2005 so maby some of the procedures have changed over the years, back in 2005 we sold our car and six months later we started receiving invoices for towing and storage charges, the first one was from our local wreckers, it turns out the car was never registered out of my moms name the people who bought it probably never intended to ever register or even insure the car, they simply gave it to their kid to drive all over BC without a licence, I think the bill was around $ 450 the first time, to our amazement a few months later this happened again, this time the kid was busted up in Kamloops, the 2nd bill was almost a grand, we cleared this up without a problem, but the reason we received these bills was because the car was still in my moms name, what I'm wondering is, how did these people continue to get access to an impounded car without being the registered owners ? a lesson learned, always make sure the purchaser of your vehicle registers it into their name before it leaves your property !
