Police Powers and Responsibilities Act 2000

This section applies in relation to a motor vehicle impounded under section 74E if the driver of the motor vehicle—

has been found guilty of 3 type 2 vehicle related offences committed within the relevant period; and

is found guilty of the fourth or subsequent type 2 vehicle related offence mentioned in section 74E(1).

On the driver being found guilty—

the motor vehicle becomes the property of the State; and

any right of a person to enforce a security interest under the Personal Property Securities Act 2009 (Cwlth) against a person other than the State by taking possession of the vehicle is extinguished.

This section applies subject to division 2.

However, subsection (5) applies if—

before the driver of the motor vehicle is found guilty of the offence mentioned in subsection (1)(b), the motor vehicle is released under section 79D, 79F or 79H with a condition; and

the motor vehicle is later impounded or immobilised under section 79P because of a breach of the condition.

Subsection (2) applies in relation to the motor vehicle as if the motor vehicle had not been released under section 79D, 79F or 79H.
