This bill died with 2024 Regular Session. It reached “Passed Senate” and never advanced before the session ended, so it can no longer move — a new version would have to be reintroduced in the current session.

This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there are no live odds of enactment. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.

Plain-language change summary

The latest version of Senate Bill 190 introduces a title change from simply enacting the DWI Act to explicitly creating it within the context of amending the Motor Vehicle Code. This change clarifies the bill's intent and structure, making it easier for lawmakers and the public to understand that it seeks to address driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs comprehensively. This distinction is important because it emphasizes the legislation's commitment to improving road safety and properly addressing DWI offenses.
