This bill amends various sections of Oklahoma law concerning driving under the influence (DUI) offenses, introducing new definitions and standards, particularly regarding the influence of controlled substances. It clarifies that the presence of non-impairing metabolites does not automatically constitute a violation unless there is additional evidence of impairment. The bill also outlines the responsibilities of the Department of Public Safety in reinstating driving privileges and mandates that individuals convicted of DUI participate in assessments and follow treatment recommendations. Key changes include the requirement for DUI offenders to attend a victims impact panel program, pay associated fees, and undergo electronic monitoring for felony violations.

Additionally, the bill establishes stricter penalties for DUI offenses, particularly for repeat offenders and those with high blood alcohol concentrations, including community service and the use of ignition interlock devices. Enhanced fines are imposed for individuals convicted of DUI while transporting a child under 18, and a mandatory assessment fee is introduced to support the Drug Abuse Education and Treatment Revolving Fund. The legislation also emphasizes the confidentiality of evaluation reports related to DUI cases and outlines consequences for non-compliance with court orders. The effective date for these changes is set for November 1, 2026.
