Arizona DUI Bill 2643 Passes House After Amendment

Arizona DUI Bill 2643, which will increase penalties for driving and boating under the influence, is heading to the governor for her signature. The bill was approved by the House on Tuesday. The bill will mandate a 10 day jail sentence for first time offenders convicted of operating a boat while under the influence, require those convicted of driving under the influence to complete alcohol or other drug screening before their suspended license can be reinstated and resolves conflicts between two DUI laws passed last year that have been threatened by legal challenges.
