                                                Bill No. CS/HB 373

    Amendment No. 01 (for drafter's use only)





 1  or former s. 860.01;

 2         (c)  Any felony in the commission of which a motor

 3  vehicle is used;

 4         (d)  Driving a motor vehicle while his or her license

 5  is suspended or revoked;

 6         (e)  Failing to stop and render aid as required under

 7  the laws of this state in the event of a motor vehicle crash

 8  resulting in the death or personal injury of another; or

 9         (f)  Driving a commercial motor vehicle while his or

10  her privilege is disqualified; or.

11         (g)  Aggressive careless driving.

12         (2)  Fifteen convictions for moving traffic offenses

13  for which points may be assessed as set forth in s. 322.27,

14  including those offenses in subsection (1).

15

16  Any violation of any federal law, any law of another state or

17  country, or any valid ordinance of a municipality or county of

18  another state similar to a statutory prohibition specified in

19  subsection (1), or subsection (2), or aggressive careless

20  driving shall be counted as a violation of such prohibition.

21  In computing the number of convictions, all convictions during

22  the 5 years previous to July 1, 1972, will be used, provided

23  at least one conviction occurs after that date.  The fact that

24  previous convictions may have resulted in suspension,

25  revocation, or disqualification under another section does not

26  exempt them from being used for suspension or revocation under

27  this section as a habitual offender.
