How do these criminals even move that number of vehicles on a regular basis without being caught? It’s not like you can hide cars.

It’s easy enough hide cars when you have garage and shipping containers, border patrol is more concerned with things entering the ports than leaving, falsify some paperwork, etc.

But aren’t containers inspected to confirm it matches their manifests, or to make sure they’ve paid any (if any) fees involved with exporting certain types of goods?

I mean, holy hell. You can get stopped at a border as an individual who has a few pieces of contraband fruit in your backpack. But the car theft industry seems to be getting away with exporting hundreds of millions of dollars worth of stolen vehicles. It’s infuriating.

The government shouldn’t have to put in $100+ million to assign a task force to catch these guys. Literally the port authority has a job they already get paid to do!
