Rep. James Mills, R-Chestnut Mountain, said his bill would allow law enforcement agencies to confiscate the vehicles of illegal immigrants who are involved in an accident or violate traffic laws.

"If there is a traffic violation or you’re involved in a wreck and during the course of that, the police determine a person is undocumented and here illegally, the vehicle is taken and becomes property of the local jurisdiction," Mills said.
