LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

SB 907, as amended, Archuleta.
 Driving under the influence and other driving offenses: comprehensive reform.

Existing law makes it a crime to operate a vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, and sets forth the penalties for a violation of these provisions. Existing law provides that a person who is guilty of driving under the influence or driving under the influence causing injury is subject to enhanced penalties if the current offense occurred within 10 years of a prior conviction that was punished as a felony for driving under the influence, driving under the influence causing injury, or vehicular manslaughter with gross negligence.

This bill would impose for a person convicted of certain driving under the influence offenses an additional 3-year term for each prior conviction of those offenses occurring within 10 years, as specified. By imposing a sentencing enhancement, this bill would establish a state-mandated local program.

Existing law requires the driver of a vehicle involved in an accident resulting only in damage to property, including vehicles, to immediately stop the vehicle at the nearest location that will not impede traffic or
 otherwise jeopardize the safety of other motorists and provide specified personal information to
 the driver of the other vehicle. Existing law makes failing to comply with these requirements a misdemeanor. Existing

Existing law requires the driver of a vehicle involved in an accident resulting in injury or death to a person, other than that driver, or in the death of a person, to immediately stop the vehicle at the scene of the accident and provide specified personal information to the injured person or the occupants of the other vehicle and to any traffic or police officer at the scene of the accident. Existing law makes failing to comply with these requirements a crime.
 crime, punishable as a misdemeanor for an accident resulting in injury and punishable as a misdemeanor or a felony for an accident resulting in death or serious injury, as defined.

This bill would impose an increased penalty for each of the above-described violations if it make the above-described violation for an accident resulting injury punishable as a misdemeanor or a felony and would impose an increased felony penalty for the above-described violation for an accident resulting in death or serious injury, if either of those violations occurred within 10 years of a separate driving under the influence, reckless driving, or gross vehicular manslaughter violation, as specified. By creating a sentencing enhancement,
 increasing the potential time of imprisonment, the bill would impose a state-mandated local program.

Existing law requires a person who is convicted of specified crimes related to driving under the influence to be advised by the court of the dangerousness of their actions and that if that behavior in the future results in a person’s death, they may be charged with murder.

This bill would additionally require this advisement to be given if the court dismisses an allegation of a violation of driving under the influence or if a person enters a plea to a different or lesser offense, as described.

The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions
