Latinos Urge Undocumented Drivers to Get Car Insurance – New Law Allows Cops to Impound Uninsured Vehicles – Utah From: kcpw.org

A new law that went into effect last month allows law enforcement officers to impound uninsured vehicles. Leaders of the state’s Latino community have waged a media campaign to get the message out to Utah’s undocumented residents, says Latino community activist Tony Yapias.
“I haven’t talked to anyone whose car has been impounded. But we’ve been working within the community to make sure we get the word out to the Latino community, especially the 24 percent or so who don’t have insurance,” Yapias says. “So we are making sure that we’re letting everyone know that they should get insurance or their car will be impounded next time they’re stopped by law enforcement.”"*
