California SB1218 establishes procedures for immobilizing vehicles in cases of illegal dumping violations.

California SB1218 adds Section 22651.10 to the Vehicle Code, allowing peace officers or code enforcement employees to immobilize vehicles found on highways or public lands if the registered owner has multiple delinquent notices for illegal dumping violations. The vehicle can be immobilized until the owner provides evidence of identity, an address, and proof of penalties paid. Owners can request an administrative review if they believe the immobilization was in error, which must be conducted within two business days.
