House receives DUI package
Bills tough on first-time offenders, those who injure others
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — A package of seven bills proposed by Gov. Mike Hayden and Attorney General Robert T. Stephan to stiften the state's laws against drunken driving was introduced in the House yesterday.
The package features legislation that would require a mandatory suspension, with no exceptions, for those convicted for the first time of driving under the influence of alcohol and drugs. The measures also call for increasing sentences for people who injure others while driving under the influence.
Hayden and Stephan have said the measures were designed to keep people from driving while drunk. They also have said passage of the legislation would make Kansas eligible for $800,000 in federal funds.
Hayden applauded the Legislature's actions in recent years to strengthen DUI laws.
The measures' primary sponsors in the House are Republican Reps. Mike O'Neal, R-Hutchison, and Ed Bideau, R-Chanute, both members of the Judiciary Committee. The other members include stockholders Authoriz, restitution for DUI
crash victims, allowing them to recover damages in much the same way victims of felony crimes can recover damages.
- Allow DUI crash victims to testify in DUI trials as to how the accident affected them.
- Give police the authority to take a drivers license from a person arrested for DUI until that person's court hearing, which could be several months away.
- Establish a stiffer sentence for felony aggravated vehicular homicide committed while a driver is under the influence.

environment. About 9 percent chose social welfare programs, and 8 percent chose highways.
