Majority of Pakistani people often like to buy second-hand cars and often get trapped in the deal of a stolen car and eventually lose both money and car. This identification system not only provides speedy info but also has resulted in a decrease in the number of car theft cases. It is the liability of Buyer and Agent to verify all the credentials before making any payment to the seller. Police and other law enforcing agencies should also play their roles in this regard more effectively.
