Existing law requires the Department of Motor Vehicles to immediately revoke the driving privilege of a person upon receipt of a duly certified abstract of the record of a court showing that the person has been convicted of, among other things, gross vehicular manslaughter while intoxicated. If the person can provide proof of financial responsibility, as defined, existing law authorizes the department to reinstate those driving privileges 3 years after the date of revocation.
This bill would require the department to immediately revoke the driving privilege of a person upon a showing that the person has 3 or more convictions for, among other things, driving while under the influence of an alcoholic beverage. The bill would prohibit the department from reinstating these driving privileges for the above-described person until the expiration of 8 years after the date of revocation, subject to certain requirements.
