The vehicle seizure would work much the same way as property seizures in drug cases. But under the bill, if the owner of the vehicle presents a sworn affidavit that he or she did not know the driver was an illegal immigrant, they would get their car back, Mills said.
This bill has no teeth, it's only a feel good policy. All an illegal immigrant has to do is register the vehicle with a legal citizen.
This is a good policy -- I can see that in case of auto theft, the owner should be able to get his vehicle back.
In other cases a thorough investigation should be made -- if the car owner was an employer of the illegal -- then they should be slapped with a huge fine for fraud and for employing illegals.
And if someone is giving permission to unlicensed drivers to drive their car -- there must be some kind of law on that that needs to be enforced. And the fraud if they had insurance but for drivers they didn't list on the policy.
