Summary

Existing law authorizes or requires the court to suspend or delay the driving privilege, or to order the Department of Motor Vehicles to suspend or delay the driving privilege, of a person who is convicted of any of certain offenses, including, among others, offenses relating to vandalism, controlled substance or alcohol use, possession, or related conduct, or firearm use. Existing law authorizes the court to suspend the driving privilege of a person, for not more than 30 days, upon conviction of soliciting or engaging in prostitution or specified lewd or dissolute conduct, if the violation was committed within 1,000 feet of a private residence and with the use of a vehicle. Existing law authorizes the court, as an alternative, to order a person's driving privilege restricted, for not more than 6 months, to necessary travel to and from the person's place of employment or education. This bill would repeal the court's authority to suspend or delay the driving privilege, or to order the department to suspend or delay the driving privilege, of a person based on a conviction of one of the above-specified offenses. The bill would make other conforming changes. The bill would state that its provisions are not intended to affect any order issued by the court before January 1, 2020, to suspend, delay, or otherwise restrict the driving privilege of a person, or any action taken by the department, whether before, on, or after January 1, 2020, pursuant to an order issued by the court before January 1, 2020, to suspend, delay, or otherwise restrict the driving privilege of a person. This bill would incorporate additional changes to Section 647 of the Penal Code proposed by AB 1129, to be operative only if this bill and AB 1129 are enacted and this bill is enacted last.
