The cars that flooded during last year’s hurricane season in the U.S. may be sold across the country as used.

Senator Chuck Schumer insists that Federal law provided the buyer a right to know whether the car he is going to buy, is flooded during a hurricane.

«In 1985, Congress passed a law that States that every used car should be a sticker, where would be listed all that the car «survived». Guess what’s missing? The label does not necessarily indicate that the car was flooded during a hurricane,» said Chuck Schumer.

In flooding caused by the hurricanes, was flooded about 60 thousand cars. According to Chuck Schumer, many of them now are cheap are sold in all over the country.
