Summary

Under existing law and subject to an administrative hearing, the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) is required to immediately suspend the privilege of a person to operate a motor vehicle if the person was driving a motor vehicle when the person had 0.08% or more, by weight, of alcohol in his or her blood, the person was under 21 years of age and had a blood-alcohol concentration of 0.01% or greater, as measured by a preliminary alcohol screening test, or other chemical test, or the person refused to submit to or failed to complete specified chemical or alcohol screening tests under specific circumstances. Existing law also requires the DMV to notify the person that he or she has within 10 days of the receipt of the notice of the order of suspension or revocation to request a hearing to contest the order of suspension or revocation. This bill would extend this period to 90 days.
