Under current law, no one may remove, disconnect, tamper with, or otherwise
circumvent the operation of an ignition interlock device. A person who does so may
be required to forfeit not less than $150 nor more than $600 for the first offense and,
for a second or subsequent offense within five years, may be fined not less than $300
nor more than $1,000, or imprisoned for not more than six months, or both.
This bill eliminates the option of ordering the person's vehicle to be immobilized
or seized and sold at auction. The bill makes it mandatory for a judge to require that
the person's operating privilege be limited, for a minimum of one year, to operating
vehicles that are equipped with an ignition interlock device if either of the following
are true: 1) the person commits a first OWI-related offense with an alcohol

concentration of 0.15 or more; or 2) the person commits a second OWI-related
offense.
Under the bill, the judge must order that every motor vehicle the person owns
be equipped with an ignition interlock device. If the judge determines that the
person's income is at or below 150 percent of the federal poverty level, the person is
required to pay a $50 surcharge upon the installation of the first ignition interlock
device and, for each ignition interlock device, half of the installation cost, and
one-half of the cost per day toward the cost of monitoring the ignition interlock
device. A person whose income is above 150 percent of the federal poverty level is
required to pay the surcharge and assume the full cost of installing and monitoring
each ignition interlock device. Under the bill, if a person who is ordered to do so fails
to pay the surcharge or fails to have an ignition interlock device installed, he or she
may not obtain an occupational license.
Under the bill, a court may order a person who removes, disconnects, tampers
with, or otherwise circumvents the operation of an ignition interlock device to be
imprisoned for not more than six months for a first offense. The bill also subjects a
person who fails to have an ignition interlock device installed as ordered by the court
to the same penalties as a person who removes, disconnects, tampers with, or
otherwise circumvents the operation of an ignition interlock device.
2. Under current law, a person who is subject to a forfeiture or a fine for
violating most state laws or local ordinances is also liable for a variety of penalty
surcharges and court fees. In addition, a person who commits an OWI-related
offense is liable for a penalty surcharge for driver improvement programs and is
required to comply with an alcohol and other drug assessment before he or she is
eligible for reinstatement of his or her driving privileges.
Currently, a person who commits his or her first OWI-related offense and who
has a blood alcohol concentration between 0.08 and 0.099 at the time of the offense
is not liable for the surcharges or fees and does not need to comply with an alcohol
or other drug assessment program. Further, the Department of Transportation
(DOT) must purge its records of a first offense related to driving while intoxicated
after ten years; the department keeps all other records of offenses related to driving
while intoxicated permanently.
Under this bill, a person who commits his or her first OWI-related offense and
who has a blood alcohol concentration between 0.08 and 0.099 at the time of the
violation is liable for the surcharges or fees and must comply with an alcohol or other
drug assessment program before his or her driving privileges may be reinstated.
Under this bill, DOT must keep a record of this offense permanently.
3. Under current law, a person who commits an OWI-related offense is subject
to a forfeiture or fine and, for a second or subsequent offense, a period of
imprisonment. Currently, a person who commits a first OWI-related offense is
subject to a forfeiture between $150 and $300. A person who commits a second
OWI-related offense is subject to a fine between $350 and $1,100 and may be
imprisoned for not less than five days nor more than six months, a person who
commits a third offense is subject to a fine between $600 and $2,000 and may be
imprisoned for not less than 30 days nor more than one year, a person who commits

a fourth offense may be fined between $600 and $2,000 and may be imprisoned for
not less than 60 days nor more than one year.
Upon committing a fifth or sixth OWI-related offense, a person is guilty of a
Class H felony, and is subject to a minimum fine of $600, a six-month minimum term
of imprisonment, and a maximum term of imprisonment of six years. A seventh,
eighth, or ninth OWI-related offense is a Class G felony, and the person is subject
to a maximum fine of $25,000 and a maximum term of imprisonment of ten years.
A tenth or subsequent OWI-related offense is a Class F felony, and the person is
subject to a maximum fine of $25,000, and a maximum term of imprisonment of 12
years and six months.
Under current law, a person who is sentenced for a felony is sentenced to a
bifurcated sentence, and the person serves a portion of his or her sentence confined
in a prison and a portion under extended supervision outside of prison.
This bill makes a first OWI-related offense a crime if, at the time of the offense,
a child under the age of 16 was present in the vehicle involved in the offense. Under
the bill, the penalties for committing this crime are the same as for committing a
second OWI-related offense.
The bill makes a fourth OWI-related offense committed within five years of a
prior offense a Class H felony and requires a person who commits a fourth
OWI-related offense within five years to pay a minimum fine of $600 and to serve
a minimum term of six months' imprisonment. The bill requires a person who
commits a seventh, eighth, or ninth OWI-related offense to serve a minimum period
of confinement or three years in prison under a bifurcated sentence and requires a
person who commits a tenth or subsequent OWI-related offense to serve a minimum
period of confinement of four years in prison under a bifurcated sentence.
4. Under current law, a person who commits an OWI-related offense and
causes injury to another is subject to a fine of not less than $300 nor more than
$2,000, imprisonment for not less than 30 days nor more than one year, or both.
Under this bill, a person who commits a second or subsequent OWI-related
offense and causes injury to another person is guilty of a Class H felony, and is subject
to a fine up to $10,000, imprisonment for not more than six years, or both.
5. 2005 Wisconsin Act 389 created a pilot program for sentencing persons in
Winnebago County who are convicted of certain second or third OWI-related
offenses. Under that act, the period of imprisonment for an OWI-related offense in
Winnebago County may be reduced if the violator successfully completes a period of
probation that includes alcohol and other drug treatment. A person may complete
a treatment program and receive a reduced period of imprisonment only once.
This bill expands the sentencing option to any county that opts to allow a
violator to successfully complete a period of probation that includes alcohol and other
drug treatment in exchange for a shorter period of imprisonment.
6. Under current law, a person who commits an OWI-related offense has his
or her operating privileges revoked for a specified period. The period of revocation
lengthens with each subsequent OWI-related offense, and generally begins on the
date on which the person commits the OWI-related offense.

Under this bill, the period of revocation begins on the date on which the person
commits the OWI-related offense, but is tolled for any time period that the person
spends in jail or in prison. The bill makes the person whose operating privileges are
revoked responsible for notifying DOT that he or she has been released from jail or
prison.
7. Under current law, after a person is convicted of most crimes, the trial court
may withhold the person's sentence, or impose a sentence of imprisonment but stay
the imposition of imprisonment, and place the person on probation for a period of
time. If the crime carries a mandatory minimum period of incarceration of one year
or less, the person must be incarcerated for at least the mandatory minimum period
as a condition of his or her probation.
Under current law, a trial court may not place a person on probation if the
person has committed a second or third OWI-related offense or three or fewer
offenses related to operating a commercial vehicle or causing injury while operating
a vehicle while intoxicated or with a prohibited alcohol concentration. A trial court
may place a person who commits more than three of these offenses on probation
under current law.
Under this bill, a trial court may place a person who commits any of those
offenses on probation. Under the bill, a person who commits an offense that carries
a mandatory minimum period of incarceration of one year or less must be
incarcerated for at least the mandatory minimum period as a condition of his or her
probation.
8. Under current law, a person who is convicted of certain OWI-related offenses
is required to pay a driver improvement surcharge of $355 in addition to any
applicable forfeiture or fine, assessments, and costs. The driver improvement
surcharge is distributed between the county where the offense took place and the
state.
This bill creates a district attorney surcharge of $100 that a person who
commits an OWI-related offense must pay in addition to the driver improvement
surcharge and any other forfeiture or fine, assessment, and costs. The money
generated from this surcharge will be used to pay for prosecution of OWI-related
offenses.
9. Under current law, a trial court may, at its discretion, release a person who
has been convicted of a crime from imprisonment until the time of sentencing.
Current law also allows a sentencing court to delay the execution of a sentence of
imprisonment for up to 60 days, unless the court finds that there is legal cause to
delay the execution of the sentence for a longer period or unless the court places the
person on probation.
Under this bill, if a person has been convicted of a third or subsequent
OWI-related offense, and the conviction carries a minimum period of imprisonment,
a court may not release the person after conviction but before sentencing until after
the person has served at least the minimum period of imprisonment. Under the bill,
a court may not delay the execution of a sentence of imprisonment unless the court
finds that there is legal cause to delay the execution of the sentence or unless the
court places the person on probation.

10. Under current law, revenue from the tax on fermented malt beverages and
from the tax on liquor is deposited into the general fund. Under the bill, beginning
July 1, 2011, $10,000,000 annually from the fermented malt beverages tax and
$10,000,000 annually from the liquor tax will be used to fund alcohol and other drug
abuse treatment in community-based corrections programs for people who commit
OWI-related offenses.
