From the Legislature

Deferred disposition in a criminal case; license suspension; driving while under the influence. Permits a trial court, for any offense based on the operation of a motor vehicle or a watercraft for which suspension of a driver's license is also required, to suspend the driver's license of a defendant when deferring disposition. The bill also allows a trial court to defer judgment for a violation of driving while intoxicated and require that the defendant participate in and successfully complete an alcohol safety action program and prohibit the defendant from operating a motor vehicle that is not equipped with an ignition interlock system. The bill excludes from its provisions any person with a commercial driver's license or commercial learner's permit or who was operating a commercial motor vehicle during the alleged violation.
