Pennsylvania HB1615 amends sentencing and licensing provisions for DUI offenses, including mandatory license suspensions and penalties for repeat.

Pennsylvania HB1615 modifies sentencing and licensing rules for driving under the influence (DUI) offenses. The bill mandates license suspensions based on blood alcohol concentration (BAC) levels and the number of prior offenses. For BAC levels below 0.10%, no suspension is required; for BAC levels between 0.10% and 0.16%, a 30-day suspension applies; and for BAC levels of 0.16% or higher, a 60-day suspension is mandated. Additionally, if the defendant has prior offenses, the suspension period increases.
