How wrecked police cars became taxicabs Chicago Sun-Times

26.05.10

Lombard police buy the car on Sept. 7, 2007, with eight miles on the odometer. On Oct. 27, 2008, the squad car is hit by another car, badly damaged and declared a total loss by the department's insurance company. It has 25,602 miles on the odometer.

On Jan. 15, 2009, Illinois Secretary of State Jesse White issues a "salvage certificate" for the squad car -- meaning it can't legally be driven in Illinois unless it's repaired, inspected by state officials and found to be safe to drive.

On Feb. 4, 2009, SOM Auto Broker -- an Indiana-licensed auto dealer that operates from a small house in Burbank as well as an office in a tiny Indiana town about 100 miles southeast of Chicago's Loop -- buys the wrecked squad car at an auction. SOM has a bill of sale showing that the car was abandoned or stolen -- not that it was declared a "salvage" vehicle in Illinois. That document allows SOM to get a "clean title" from the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles. "Under Indiana law, that's an adequate document for us to issue a title," says Dennis Rosebrough, deputy commissioner for the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles. In a case like this, unless the owner tells Indiana the car was salvaged, Rosebrough says, "How do we know to issue a salvaged title?" The title has now been "washed," concealing that the car had been declared "salvage'' by Illinois.
