Traffic Court
Convictions Up
Oregon courts have reported more
than 200,000 traffic violation convic­
tions to the Department of Motor
Vehicles so far this year.
The department said that convic-
t i o n s through September totaled
205,240,up about seven percent over
the same period a year ago.
The end-of-September report also
indicated that driver license suspen­
sions this year have totaled 34,808
with 29,714 of these based on manda­
tory provisions of the law.
The department reported that 3,132
of the suspensions involved driving
while intoxicated convictions, a
charge which calls for loss of the
driver’s license for a period ranging
from 90 days to three years, depend­
ing on whether it’s a first, second,
third or subsequent conviction on the
charge.
By far the greatest number of man­
datory suspensions involved failure
to comply with financial responsibil­
ity provisions of the law and these
licenses, the department said, are re­
instated when drivers or owners meet
legal requirements.
Licenses suspended under discre­
tionary authority of the licensing of­
fice included: driving record, 1,970;
recommendation of court, 1,896; and
failure to pass tests when called-in
to do so, 379.
