I wondered at first if this fool was on drugs, and that was why they took the car for this purpose. Since there was no mention I guess it probably is "doughnut abuse". Too bad for the felon.
According to the article in question, the car was impounded and eventually granted custody to the local PD for this logical and justified "reason":

Marzetta was the arresting officer when the 2000 Dodge Viper was seized in March 2006 on numerous traffic offenses.

The driver was eventually charged with felony fleeing and eluding police, while his car became the property of the Plainfield Police Department.

Now the shiny black Viper with a cognac leather interior has a fresh-paint detail and is outfitted with lights, ready to serve as the department's new D.A.R.E. car.
