A bill for an act relating to the driver’s license revocation effective date following an operating-while-intoxicated violation or refusal to test.
HF 457 extends the period before a driver's license revocation takes effect following an operating-while-intoxicated (OWI) violation or refusal to take a chemical test, changing it from 10 to 20 days after notice is mailed by the Department of Transportation. It also extends the validity of temporary licenses issued by peace officers during immediate revocation notices from 10 to 20 days. The bill directly affects drivers convicted of OWI or who refused testing, altering the timeline for license revocation and temporary license duration. This change applies only to the effective date of revocation and temporary license validity, leaving other timelines (like hearing requests) unchanged. The policy modifies existing administrative procedures without changing OWI offense definitions or penalties.
