Current Bill Summary


SB 474 - Current law allows repeat DUI offenders required to have an ignition interlock device installed on his or her vehicle to apply for an exemption to allow him or her to operate a vehicle owned by his or her employer. Such variances shall not be granted where the offender is self-employed or owns the business entity that owns the vehicle.

This act specifies that variances shall also not be granted when the offender controls the business entity.

This act is identical to HB 875 (2017), and to provisions in SS/SCS/HCS/HB 115 (2017), CCS/SCS#2/SB 128 (2017), CCS/HCS/SB 225 (2017), SCS/HB 256 (2017), and SS/SCS/HB 302 (2017). This provision is similar to HCS/HB 875 (2017), and to provisions in HCB 1 (2017), and HCB 9 (2017).
