OMVIC Practice Test

Under what condition can a vehicle with a 'Stolen' status be sold?

1. If the theft was minor

2. After paying a fine

3. When the vehicle is recovered and the status is removed

4. It cannot be sold until repaired

The correct answer is: When the vehicle is recovered and the status is removed

A vehicle with a 'Stolen' status cannot be sold until it is recovered and the status is removed. This is because selling a stolen vehicle is illegal and would be considered fraud. Options A, B, and D are incorrect because they do not address the main issue of the vehicle being stolen. Option A suggests that a minor theft would make selling the vehicle permissible, but any type of theft would result in the vehicle having a stolen status. Option B implies that paying a fine would automatically remove the stolen status, which is not the case. Option D assumes that the vehicle can be sold once it is repaired, but the stolen status must still be addressed before the sale can take place. Therefore, option C is the only correct answer as it directly addresses the condition under which a vehicle with a stolen status can be sold.
