Not only has she coordina ted four statewide conferences New drinking & driving laws to take effect Sat. Tougher laws will face peo ple who drink and then drive beginning Saturday, Oct. 15, even though major anti-drink -ipg driver legislation passed by the 1983 Legislature still is nearly nine months away from taking effect, announced the Oregon Dept. of Transporta tions's Motor Vehiclels Divi sion. Laws on drinking drivers are not the only new or changed laws drivers need to know to stay out of trouble on streets and highways, accor ding to the Motor Vehicles Division. Changes also take effect October 15 in rules of the road, police authority to cite and arrest drivers, grounds for license suspen sion, and action required againsdt uninsured drivers. Laws take effect that day to ground for five years, drivers convicted of crimes such as manslaughter or criminally negligent homicide, and to suspend or deny driving privi leges for actions that have not previously meant loss of a license. The following are some of the changes drivers need to know: Drinking Drivers The level at which a driver is considered "under the in fluence of alcohol" drops from 0.10 percent to 0.08 percent. In other words, it will take fewer drinks for most drivers to get to the "unsafe" level for driv ing. Another change allows a chemical test to be taken without a person's consent if a police officer has probably cause to believe the person was driving under the in fluence and that the tests will reveal that fact. This law applies when the person is unconscious or otherwise in a condition that makes him or her incapable of expressly consenting to the test or tests requested. sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss Mltu Guaranteed Wrenches Sockets Metric or Regular Individually or Sets High Quality Tools at a Good Price. Heppner, Oregon, Thursday, on aging, but she also has conducted more than 50 geron tology workshops for public service agencies as part of her involvement with gerontology at OSU. She received her Ph.D. in family life with an emphasis on gerontology from OSU. Born in Spokane, Wash., she studied home economics edu cation at the University of Washington before receiving her bachelor's degree in home economics education and health from Montana State University. Dr. Schmall was named Oregon's Outstanding Young Woman of America in 1978. That was the year she re ceived a two-year grant from the National Council on Aging to develop a national demon stration project using univer sity students to fill gaps in community services to the elderly. Dr. Schmall has contributed chapters to several books on aging, and is the author or co-author of numerous publi cations and articles on various aspects of aging, said Mrs. Hawkins. For more information, call 276-7111, extension 235 or 276-4474. Police also may obtain a test of the blood to determine alcohol content, or a test of blood or urine, or both, to determine if drugs are present if a person expressly consents to the test or tests. Most drivers, however, will continue to run afoul of the implied consent law. It applies only to breath tests to deter mine if or how much a driver has been drinking. Drivers who refuse a breath test in certain off-highway locations, such as shopping center park ing lots, will face a 120-day license suspension under the new law. In the past, the law applied only to public high ways.. Still another change tight ens provisions on who may avoid a D. U.I.I, (driving under the influence of intoxic cants) conviction on the record by agreeing with a court to divert to an alcohol education or treatment pro gram. It is aimed at closing what some officials have con sidered loopholes in the 1981 law. One new law is aimed squarely at trying to convince young people to stay from alcohol and drugs. It allows a court to order the Motor Ve hicles Division to deny driving privileges for periods of time ranging from 90 days up to several years. This happens if anyone be tween the ages of 13 and 17 is convicted or determined by a court to commit any crime, violation or infraction invol ving possession, use or abuse of alcohol or controlled sub stances. Driving a motor vehicle may not even be in volved in the offense. Proponents of the measure said in legislative hearings that they believe it will help deter young people from these offenses because of the impor tance most young people place on getting their first driver's license. i m il m i mi TOOLS m mz il I II mi i m October 13. 19R3 OSU Cattle Conference to be held in Pendleton By STEVE CAMPBFI.l.
