1,700 Drivers Lose License
Nearly 1.700 Oregon drivers
have had their licenses to drive
suspended for 90 days this year
because they have refused to
take a chemical test to de­
termine how much alcohol was
in their blood.
Under the state’s implied
consent law, refusal to take a
test after arrested for a driv­
ing while intoxicated charge is
grounds for a 90-day license
suspension This suspension has
no relationship to the subse-
quent outcome of the drinking
charge.
Suspensions for refusal to
take the tests have increased
this year by 59 1/2%, accord­
ing to the Motor Vehicles Di­
vision, and reflect the step­
ped-up enforcement programs
against drinking drivers in the
state.
Through November,
10,015 driving under the ln-
fluence convictions had been
reported--a 32 per cent in­
crease over 1971.
Carl's Building Center
-iMt
K. E. Kerby at
Under the implied consent
law, police agencies report to
the Motor Vehicles Division
when a driver under arrest for
driving under the influence re­
fuses to take a chemical test.
The agency then notifies the
driver his license to drive will
be suspended, but provides 20
days in which he may request
a hearing to determine if all
terms of the law were com­
plied with by police when
the request was made. Although
the majority decline the hear­
ing, the agency notes that re­
quests foi a hearing have in­
creased in the last year. The
increase is attributed to new
laws lowering the presumptive
level to .10 for driving under
the influence and providing
stiffer penalties for readings of
.15 or more.
As a footnote, the agency has
received 324,609 abstracts of
traffic
violation convictions
through November. The figure
represents a seven percent in­
crease over the comparable
period in 1971,
