Legislation Toughens California DUI Laws
Bill calls for suspending licenses for 10 years for repeat offenders
On Monday, the California General Assembly passed legislation calling for increased penalties for those convicted of multiple CA DUI offenses. Bill AB1601 gives authority to the courts to revoke a driver's license for ten years when the offender has been convicted of three or more times for drunk driving within ten years.
Under current California drunk driving laws, a motorist can lose his/her license for two to five years.
The bill has been passed by the Assembly and now goes to Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger's desk for consideration.
