BILL NUMBER:S5859 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the vehicle and traffic law, in relation to driving while intoxicated and ignition interlock devices PURPOSE: To better effectuate the purposes of Chapter 496 of the Laws of 2009 ("Leandra's Law"). SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: Section one of the bill provides that a person operating a vehicle with a conditional license while intoxicated or impaired would be subject to a charge of first degree aggravated unlicensed operation (AUO) of a motor vehicle, which is a class E felony. Section two of the bill clarifies that youthful offenders are subject to ignition interlock requirements, and provides that the minimum period of interlock installation would be increased to 12 months, but reduced to six months upon submission of proof that the defendant installed and maintained an interlock device for at least six months, unless the court orders a longer interlock period. It also provides that the interlock period would commence from the earlier of the date of sentencing, or the date that an interlock device was installed in advance of sentencing.
