I don't understand how you can ship a car without proper papers out of the country so easily. Maybe focus on that first?

What papers? You think we verify that the contents of every outbound container matches what it says on the manifest? We don't. It would be prohibitively expensive to scan every container. Even if we did, and found a car in a container, how would we know the documents provided aren't valid?

This is a really hard problem. If there's an easy solution in mind, feel free to suggest it.

It's not a hard problem. Shipping companies must know the content of each container by law.

Verify 1 container out of 20. When you catch a stolen car, fine the shipping company for not doing their job. Find employees who performed the forgery of documents and put them in prison. If the company doesn't keep records of which employee prepares which document, fine the company. And so on. Unfortunately police and customs would have to do their job in this case, I can see how they're upset.

		I have no words that you think it is easier to scan every single conversation online, than to enforce proper border/customs checks for freight.
