Abstract

The author examines some gnoseological and procedural errors that occur in the course of forensic verification of vehicle identification numbers (VINs). Their conclusion is that expert errors associated with this type of forensic examination arise due to its methodological and organizational characteristics. With respect to the common types of errors documented by leading researchers, VIN verification demonstrates some exceptions that help to expand our understanding of this area of forensic practice.
