That may be true in Taiwan. I don't believe this to be true in the UK at least not completely.
(Our old neighbour had his car stolen, he later recognised the car with new number plates etc etc and reported it to the police. However the new owner had purchased it in good faith and my parents friend was told to claim against his insurance as the new owner was the legal owner, despite the car being stolen property).
