1. ““The effect of the amended statute is to work a confiscation of any vehicle, or animal, into or upon which any prohibited liquor or beverage has been loaded for transportation, whether transported or not. The purpose of the amendment is to meet and obviate the decision in Carey v. State, 206 Ala. 351 , 89 So. 609 , where it was decided that there could be no conveyance of intoxicating liquor by an automobile standing still. The effect of the amended statute is to denounce, and punish by forfeiture of animal or vehicle, the placing on any animal, or in any vehicle, intoxicating liquor or beverage for transportation.” [Emphasis supplied.]”
