EXPLANATION
21
The
inclusion
of
this
explanation
does
not
constitute
agreement
with
22
the
explanation’s
substance
by
the
members
of
the
general
assembly.
23
This
bill
concerns
speed-related
driving
violations.
24
Under
current
law,
the
department
of
transportation
(DOT)
25
must
revoke
the
driver’s
license
of
a
person
who
is
convicted
26
of
certain
crimes
involving
a
motor
vehicle.
Upon
revoking
27
a
driver’s
license,
the
DOT
is
prohibited
from
granting
an
28
application
for
a
new
license
until
the
expiration
of
one
year
29
after
the
revocation,
unless
another
period
is
specified
by
30
law.
A
person
whose
driver’s
license
was
revoked
must
apply
31
for
a
new
license
and
pay
the
required
fees
under
Code
section
32
321.191,
including
a
$20
reinstatement
fee.
33
The
bill
requires
the
DOT
to
revoke
the
driver’s
license
34
of
a
person
who
is
convicted
of
exceeding
a
speed
limit
with
35
-4-
LSB
5381XS
(4)
91
th/ns
4/
7
S.F.
2030
a
detected
speed
of
100
miles
per
hour
(MPH)
or
more.
The
1
driver’s
license
must
be
revoked
for
30
days
and
the
person
2
is
ineligible
for
a
temporary
restricted
license
under
Code
3
section
321.215.
4
The
bill
authorizes
a
peace
officer,
on
behalf
of
the
5
DOT,
to
serve
immediate
notice
of
intention
to
revoke
and
of
6
revocation
on
a
person
cited
for
exceeding
a
speed
limit
with
7
a
detected
speed
of
100
MPH
or
more.
If
the
peace
officer
8
serves
immediate
notice,
the
peace
officer
is
required
to
9
take
the
Iowa
driver’s
license
of
the
person
and
issue
a
10
temporary
license
effective
for
10
days.
The
peace
officer
11
must
immediately
send
the
person’s
license
to
the
DOT
along
12
with
the
officer’s
certificate
indicating
the
person’s
detected
13
excessive
speed.
This
process
exists
under
current
law
for
14
persons
who
refuse
to
submit
to
chemical
testing
after
a
15
suspected
operating-while-intoxicated
(OWI)
violation
(Code
16
section
321J.9).
A
person
whose
driver’s
license
is
revoked
17
under
the
bill
may
appeal
the
revocation
in
the
manner
provided
18
to
a
person
suspected
of
violating
Code
section
321J.2
(OWI)
19
as
provided
in
Code
section
321J.13
(hearing
on
revocation
——
20
appeal).
21
The
DOT
is
required
to
adopt
administrative
rules
to
22
administer
the
mandatory
license
revocation
provisions
of
the
23
bill.
24
The
bill
makes
conforming
internal
Code
reference
changes,
25
eliminates
a
conflict
regarding
the
issuance
of
a
temporary
26
restricted
license
for
second
and
subsequent
reckless
driving
27
violations,
and
strikes
certain
references
to
“conviction”
28
and
“forfeiture
of
bail
not
vacated”
in
Code
section
321.209
29
to
reduce
duplication.
When
used
in
Code
chapter
321
(motor
30
vehicles
and
law
of
the
road),
“conviction”
is
defined
to
31
mean
a
final
conviction,
including
but
not
limited
to
a
plea
32
of
guilty
or
nolo
contendere
accepted
by
the
court,
a
final
33
administrative
ruling
or
determination,
or
an
unvacated
34
forfeiture
of
bail
or
collateral
deposited
to
secure

person’s

appearance
in

Under
current
law,
a
person
who
drives
a
vehicle
in
such
2
manner
as
to
indicate
either
a
willful
or
a
wanton
disregard
3
for
the
safety
of
persons
or
property
is
guilty
of
reckless
4
driving,
in
violation
of
Code
section
321.277.
A
person
5
convicted
for
“reckless
driving”
commits
a
simple
misdemeanor.
6
A
simple
misdemeanor
is
punishable
by
confinement
for
no
more
7
than
30
days
and
a
fine
of
at
least
$105
but
not
more
than
$855.
8
The
bill
provides
that
exceeding
the
speed
limit
by
more
than
9
20
MPH
is
reckless
driving.
10
By
operation
of
law,
a
person
who
drives
recklessly
in
11
violation
of
Code
section
321.277,
as
amended
by
the
bill,
12
commits
a
class
“C”
felony
if
the
violation
unintentionally
13
causes
the
death
of
another,
and
commits
a
class
“D”
felony
14
if
the
violation
unintentionally
causes
a
serious
injury
(see
15
Code
section
707.6A
——
homicide
or
serious
injury
by
vehicle).
16
Under
current
law,
Code
section
707.6A
also
applies
if
a
17
person,
other
than
a
member
of
a
public
safety
agency,
exceeds
18
the
posted
speed
limit
by
25
MPH
or
more
and
unintentionally
19
causes
death
or
serious
injury,
if
the
speeding
violation
is
20
the
proximate
cause
of
the
death
or
injury.
21
A
class
“C”
felony
is
punishable
by
confinement
for
no
more
22
than
10
years
and
a

of
at

$1,370
but
not
more

and
a

but
not
25
more
than
$10,245.
26
Under
current
law,
Code
section
321.288
requires
a
person
27
operating
a
motor
vehicle
to
control
the
vehicle
at
all
times
28
and
reduce
the
speed
of

when
approaching
and
31
traversing
a

intersection,
sharp
turn,
curve,
or
32
steep
descent
on
a
