Explain the VIN and its role in criminal investigation of motor vehicle theft
What will be an ideal response?
• The VIN is as unique to a motor vehicle as a fingerprint is to a human being. It is assigned to the vehicle by the manufacturer at the time of production and is designed to distinguish each vehicle from all others. The primary purpose of the VIN is for identification and registration, and an invalid VIN is prime evidence that a vehicle has been stolen.
