OPINION

CANTRELL, Judge.

The Commissioner of Safety ordered John Forester Hill's Chevrolet Suburban forfeited because it was used to transport a controlled substance. Finding that the Commissioner's order was not supported by substantial and material evidence, the Chancery Court of Davidson County reversed. We reinstate the Commissioner's order.
