I am informed by the Garda authorities that vehicles seized under the provisions of section 41 of the Road Traffic Act 1994 are restored where the person provides proof of ownership and has paid the relevant charge. Production of a valid driving licence, certificate of insurance and tax may also be required unless the vehicle is not being used in a public place or is being towed from the Garda station.
