ANSWER

INTRODUCTION :- Alcohol,guns and drugs are basically being interlinked with the criminal aspect,as such whenever we hear these terms along with crime it quickly trigger our mind and we easily could relate the relation between the two.But crime does not merely depend on these things,rather one major aspect which is being linked with crime is car which is generally known as car crime.When we hear about any vehicle,the first thing that strike our mind is the comfort,and ease with which we can travel different place in very less time.But with the advancing age,these cars are even being used as a major source of crime.

ROLE OF CARS IN CRIME AND POSSIBLE THEORY OF CAR CRIME.

Car crime refers to the sense in which the some people belonging to any sort of criminal activity tends to steal the car,and thereby using it for every wrong reasons,such as human trafficking,supplying the illegal things from one place to another such as drugs,weapons etc.For the purpose of doing all these things one needs a vehicle with which they can carry forward their work more easily,without their identity being revealed,because if any case the car gets caught,the owner of the car will be asked to presented before the law.

Another aspect of car crime is that when a person steals the car he may further sell it illegally to someone else in order to get huge sum of money from the car.Car crime is one serious matter in this regard that one tend to use the car for every wrong reason,and the person who actually owns it,has to go through many obstacle if any crime takes place with his car.

One of the possible theory with respect to car crime is that it generally take place either when a person wants to commit those activities in which he does not want that in no way his name to be revealed,because it would lead him to huge problem,thus he steal someone's car,and commit the crime,or either due to the need of money,when he finds no other way,so person steals,so that he may get some money for himself.
