 BILL NUMBER: AB 1104INTRODUCED BILL TEXT INTRODUCED BY Assembly Members Pan and Dickinson FEBRUARY 18, 2011 An act to amend Section 23665 of the Vehicle Code, relating to vehicles. LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST AB 1104, as introduced, Pan. Vehicles: driving-under-the-influence (DUI). Existing law authorizes a court to postpone the revocation or suspension of a person's driving privilege until the term of imprisonment is served if that person was convicted of certain DUI provisions, among other things, and sentenced to serve one year in a county jail or more than one year in the state prison. This bill would instead require the court to postpone the revocation or suspension of a person's driving privilege until the term of imprisonment is served, and notify the department of the postponement, if that person was convicted of certain DUI provisions and sentenced to serve any time in a county jail or the state prison. Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: yes. State-mandated local program: no. THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS: SECTION 1.
