How long do unrecovered stolen vehicles without a VIN or OAN remain on file?

Unrecovered stolen vehicles that do not have a Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) or Offense Number (OAN) remain on file for 90 days. This time frame is important for law enforcement agencies as it allows them to keep track of these vehicles and provides a systematic way to handle incidents involving stolen vehicles lacking crucial identification numbers. The 90 days gives a reasonable period for recovery efforts and ensures that the records remain current while still being disposed of if the vehicles are not recovered within this timeframe. This policy also helps prevent clutter in the system with outdated reports, ultimately enhancing the efficiency of vehicle recovery operations.
