Can anyone tell me who is responsible, or who I should contact, for removing a crashed/abandoned car at the bottom of Monte Dourado? It's been there for some months now. Thanks.

I think its down to the Lagoa camara - there was a wreck near our house when we bought it (the house that is !) apparently had been there about 2 years ! - a neighbour contacted the council who came and put a sign on it saying something like there was a month to move it or it would be towed away !.

Eventually (I think very soon after the month expired) it was taken away.

your best bet is to contact ''junta de freguesia de carvoeiro'', remember the sooner you'll request the better, it might take a while to get the car out of there....

The GNR obviously have better things to look at or aren't they responsible for things like this? Surprised residents don't get together in numbers to complain. Couldn't imagine that car being left for that long in a UK town centre - GNR mustn't be that security conscious - what if a bomb was in there-does happen unfortunately.

ha ha ha ...Do you think the GNR care...........how long you lived here ??

Thanks for all helpful advice but as we went out tonight we've noticed the car has now actually gone!! Maybe the car belonged to a CVO.com member with a guilty conscience!

Even better it could be a GNR Cvo.com'er with a conscience
They have been getting a bad reputation on this site lately - maybe there should be more complaints about them - a bit like BBC Watchdog in UK?
