Local authorities have a role to investigate reports of abandoned vehicles. But not all vehicles reported as abandoned, will truly be abandoned. The vehicles may instead be untaxed, parked irresponsibly or have become part of a neighbour dispute.

Therefore, it is important that those responding to reports of abandoned vehicles know what to look for and how to deal with these correctly.
