Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau

2009 Wisconsin Act 100 made several changes to the laws relating to operating a motor vehicle while intoxicated. This bill makes technical changes to that act.

The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do enact as follows:

(1) (a), (am), (ar), or (b), if the offense is criminal under s. 940.09 and involved the use of a motor vehicle, or if the offense is criminal under s. 940.25, (am), (ar), or (b) or under sub. (3), the department shall extend the revocation period by the number of days to which a court sentences the person to imprisonment in a jail or prison.
