I voted that this is a legitimate business. I only say so because it exists. Were it even possible to outlaw scams like this, I'd vote otherwise, but it is not.

My actual vote is for "caveat emptor". There is no reason why an elderly person should be so uninformed about their own vehicle, regardless of circumstances. I have no sympathy for her or the decision she made, and doing so simply lends credence to the same kind of legal process that makes such things possible in the first place. Well, I do feel a little sympathy, but not much!

Thinking that something could or must be done about this only worsens the problem. Complacency bred by faith in the law helps nothing.
