Change ownership when selling vehicles, Police urge

Authorities are reminding anyone selling their vehicles to change the ownership of the car as soon as possible.

The message from the constabulary comes after a recent investigation where officers traced a vehicle involved in a crime which had changed hands several times but the ownership hadn't been changed.

Officers say they're not implying anyone who doesn't change the ownership is a criminal but it can be a tactic used by offenders to commit crimes and avoid detection.

Police took to social media to issue the reminder to all motorists.
