What do you think about this proposal? 🤔
A new bill in California could ban alcohol sales to repeat and “serious” DUI offenders.
Assembly Bill 1605, introduced by Assemblymember Rhodesia Ransom, D-Tracy, would allow judges to place a “no alcohol sale” restriction on the driver’s licenses or Real IDs of people with serious or repeat DUI convictions. Stores, bars, and restaurants would be prohibited from serving them alcohol.
According to state data, more than 110,000 DUI arrests were made statewide in 2021, and about one in four convicted offenders had at least one prior DUI.
The proposal follows a similar law in Utah. Ransom is expected to discuss the measure with Mothers Against Drunk Driving at a news conference focused on preventing impaired driving in California.
