AN ACT RELATING TO MOTOR AND OTHER VEHICLES -- MOTOR VEHICLE OFFENSES

Summary

The legislation amends Rhode Island’s motor vehicle offenses to allow a sentencing judge or traffic magistrate to reduce a mandatory license suspension by requiring an ignition‑interlock system and/or blood and urine drug testing. It applies to drivers convicted of alcohol‑ or drug‑related driving offenses. The goal is to increase road safety while giving offenders a path to regain driving privileges sooner.
