A car that is left on the edge of the road or beside the park and cannot be found by the owner.
There are also malicious cases such as removing the number or cutting the car number. Such abandoned cars not only impair the aesthetics of the city, but also hinder the passage of people and cars, sometimes ignited, and cause various problems in the local community.

About car left on roads managed by city, we investigate in Public Works Office and confirm facts based on "the regulations (outside site) about prevention of outbreak such as Yokohama-shi abandoned car and sinking ship" (enforced in October, 1991). Check the number, body number, damage status, etc., make a record, and attach a warning letter (yellow card) at the same time.
In addition, the local police confirm ownership, issue removal recommendations and removal orders as necessary, and promote voluntary removal. However, if the owner is not identified as a result of the investigation, the waste judgment committee (held by the Resources and Waste Recycling Bureau beautification promotion, etc.) removes and disposes of the vehicles determined to be waste in the city.
