I WOULD like to know how long it takes for the council to remove an abandoned car?


Since February, I have filed an online form to Merseyside Police reporting an abandoned car four times.


Since then I have had a phone call from the police telling me they had contacted St Helens Council.


I have also reported it to St Helens Council.


I’ve also filled in five forms for the DVLA and still I’m awaiting a reply.


The car has no MOT, no road tax and is not insured.

Therefore, the car is not legal to be on a public road or car park and has not been driven since before the start of the year.


If the authorities cannot manage a simple thing like removing an abandoned car the future is certainly bleak.


But maybe it can be blamed on the usual culprit, the government; everything else seems to be the government’s fault.
