Question on Interpereting Transportation Code 521.457(f-1)
We are in the process of doing new law in-service for the Highway Patrol Troopers. Questions have come up regarding what the meaning of new Subsection (f-1) for DWLI. One interpretation is that it only applies if the person is stopped driving while suspended for an offense involving operation of motor vehicle while intoxicated and has a prior alcohol-related offense (conviction or alr-related). Another is that it applies if the person is stopped driving while suspended for any reason and has a prior alcohol-related offense (conviction or alr-related). Now that prosecutors have had a chance to consider this new revision, how are you handling this issue?
