About Abandoned Vehicles

A car that has been left on the edge of the road or on the side of a park where the owner cannot be found.
There are also malicious cases such as removing the number or shaving the body number. Such abandoned cars not only spoil the aesthetics of the city, but also hinder the passage of people and cars, sometimes ignited, and cause various problems in the community.
About car left on roads managed by city, we investigate in Public Works Office based on "the regulations about prevention of outbreak such as Yokohama-shi abandoned car and sinking ship and appropriate processing" (enforced in October 1991) And confirm the facts. 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 will investigate the owner and issue removal recommendations and removal orders as necessary, and encourage them to remove them voluntarily. However, as a result of the investigation, if the owner is unknown, if the Waste Judgment Committee (held in charge of Resources and Waste Recycling Bureau beautification promotion, etc.) determines that it is waste, it is removed and disposed of in the city.
