5	to read:
6	316.0741  High-occupancy-vehicle High occupancy vehicle
7	lanes.--
8	(1)  As used in this section, the term:
9	(a)  "High-occupancy-vehicle High occupancy vehicle lane"
10	or "HOV lane" means a lane of a public roadway designated for
11	use by vehicles in which there is more than one occupant unless
12	otherwise authorized by federal law.
13	(b)  "Hybrid vehicle" means a motor vehicle:
14	1.  That draws propulsion energy from onboard sources of
15	stored energy which are both an internal combustion or heat
16	engine using combustible fuel and a rechargeable energy-storage
17	system; and
18	2.  That, in the case of a passenger automobile or light
19	truck, has received a certificate of conformity under the Clean
20	Air Act, 42 U.S.C. ss. 7401 et seq., and meets or exceeds the
21	equivalent qualifying California standards for a low-emission
22	vehicle.
23	(2)  The number of persons that must be in a vehicle to
24	qualify for legal use of the HOV lane and the hours during which
25	the lane will serve as an HOV lane, if it is not designated as
26	such on a full-time basis, must also be indicated on a traffic
27	control device.
28	(3)  Except as provided in subsection (4), a vehicle may
29	not be driven in an HOV lane if the vehicle is occupied by fewer
30	than the number of occupants indicated by a traffic control
31	device. A driver who violates this section shall be cited for a
32	moving violation, punishable as provided in chapter 318.
33	(4)(a)  Notwithstanding any other provision of this
34	section, an inherently low-emission vehicle (ILEV) that is
35	certified and labeled in accordance with federal regulations may
36	be driven in an HOV lane at any time, regardless of its
37	occupancy. In addition, upon the state's receipt of written
38	notice from the proper federal regulatory agency authorizing
39	such use, a vehicle defined as a hybrid vehicle under this
40	section may be driven in an HOV lane at any time, regardless of
41	its occupancy.
42	(b)  All eligible hybrid and all eligible other low-
43	emission and energy-efficient vehicles driven in an HOV lane
44	must comply with the minimum fuel economy standards in 23 U.S.C.

50	lane, regardless of occupancy, the Department of Transportation
51	shall review the rule and recommend to the Legislature any
52	statutory changes necessary for compliance with the federal
53	rule. The department shall provide its recommendations no later
54	than 30 days following issuance of the final rule.

58	(4) authorizing driving in an HOV lane at any time such use. The
59	department may charge a fee for a decal, not to exceed the costs
60	of designing, producing, and distributing each decal, or $5,

64	facilities, limit or discontinue issuance of decals for the use
65	of HOV facilities by hybrid and low-emission and energy-
66	efficient vehicles, regardless of occupancy, if it has been
67	determined by the Department of Transportation that the
68	facilities are degraded as defined by 23 U.S.C. s. 166(d)(2).
69	(6)  Vehicles having decals by virtue of compliance with
70	the minimum fuel economy standards under 23 U.S.C. s.
71	166(f)(3)(B), and which are registered for use in high-occupancy
72	toll lanes or express lanes in accordance with Department of

1673	disqualification citation issued to the person arrested; and the
1674	officer's description of the person's field sobriety test, if
1675	any. The failure of the officer to submit materials within the
1676	5-day period specified in this subsection or subsection (1) does
1677	shall not affect the department's ability to consider any
1678	evidence submitted at or prior to the hearing. The officer may
1679	also submit a copy of a videotape of the field sobriety test or
1680	the attempt to administer such test and a copy of the crash
1681	report, if any.
1682	(3)  If the department determines that the person arrested
1683	should be disqualified from operating a commercial motor vehicle
1684	pursuant to this section and if the notice of disqualification
1685	has not already been served upon the person by a law enforcement
1686	officer or correctional officer as provided in subsection (1),
1687	the department shall issue a notice of disqualification and,
1688	unless the notice is mailed pursuant to s. 322.251, a temporary
1689	permit which expires 10 days after the date of issuance if the
1690	driver is otherwise eligible.
1691	(4)  If the person disqualified arrested requests an
1692	informal review pursuant to subparagraph (1)(b)3., the
1693	department shall conduct the informal review by a hearing
1694	officer employed by the department. Such informal review hearing
1695	shall consist solely of an examination by the department of the
1696	materials submitted by a law enforcement officer or correctional
1697	officer and by the person disqualified arrested, and the
1698	presence of an officer or witness is not required.
1699	(5)  After completion of the informal review, notice of the
1700	department's decision sustaining, amending, or invalidating the
1701	disqualification must be provided to the person. Such notice
1702	must be mailed to the person at the last known address shown on
1703	the department's records, and to the address provided in the law
1704	enforcement officer's report if such address differs from the
1705	address of record, within 21 days after the expiration of the
1706	temporary permit issued pursuant to subsection (1) or subsection
1707	(3).
1708	(6)(a)  If the person disqualified arrested requests a
1709	formal review, the department must schedule a hearing to be held
1710	within 30 days after such request is received by the department
1711	and must notify the person of the date, time, and place of the
1712	hearing.
1713	(b)  Such formal review hearing shall be held before a
1714	hearing officer employed by the department, and the hearing
1715	officer shall be authorized to administer oaths, examine
1716	witnesses and take testimony, receive relevant evidence, issue
1717	subpoenas for the officers and witnesses identified in documents
1718	as provided in subsection (2), regulate the course and conduct
1719	of the hearing, and make a ruling on the disqualification. The
1720	department and the person disqualified arrested may subpoena
1721	witnesses, and the party requesting the presence of a witness
1722	shall be responsible for the payment of any witness fees. If the
1723	person who requests a formal review hearing fails to appear and
1724	the hearing officer finds such failure to be without just cause,
1725	the right to a formal hearing is waived and the department shall
1726	conduct an informal review of the disqualification under
1727	subsection (4).
1728	(c)  A party may seek enforcement of a subpoena under
1729	paragraph (b) by filing a petition for enforcement in the
1730	circuit court of the judicial circuit in which the person
1731	failing to comply with the subpoena resides. A failure to comply
1732	with an order of the court shall result in a finding of contempt
1733	of court. However, a person shall not be in contempt while a
1734	subpoena is being challenged.
1735	(d)  The department must, within 7 days after a formal
1736	review hearing, send notice to the person of the hearing
1737	officer's decision as to whether sufficient cause exists to
1738	sustain, amend, or invalidate the disqualification.
1739	(7)  In a formal review hearing under subsection (6) or an
1740	informal review hearing under subsection (4), the hearing
1741	officer shall determine by a preponderance of the evidence
1742	whether sufficient cause exists to sustain, amend, or invalidate
1743	the disqualification. The scope of the review shall be limited
1744	to the following issues:
1745	(a)  If the person was disqualified from operating a
1746	commercial motor vehicle for driving with an unlawful blood-
1747	alcohol level in violation of s. 316.193:
1748	1.  Whether the arresting law enforcement officer had
1749	probable cause to believe that the person was driving or in
1750	actual physical control of a commercial motor vehicle, or any
1751	motor vehicle if the driver holds a commercial driver's license,
1752	in this state while he or she had any alcohol, chemical
1753	substances, or controlled substances in his or her body.
1754	2.  Whether the person was placed under lawful arrest for a
1755	violation of s. 316.193.
1756	2.3.  Whether the person had an unlawful blood-alcohol
1757	level or breath-alcohol level of 0.08 or higher as provided in
1758	s. 316.193.
1759	(b)  If the person was disqualified from operating a
1760	commercial motor vehicle for refusal to submit to a breath,
1761	blood, or urine test:
1762	1.  Whether the law enforcement officer had probable cause
1763	to believe that the person was driving or in actual physical
1764	control of a commercial motor vehicle, or any motor vehicle if
1765	the driver holds a commercial driver's license, in this state
1766	while he or she had any alcohol, chemical substances, or
1767	controlled substances in his or her body.
1768	2.  Whether the person refused to submit to the test after
1769	being requested to do so by a law enforcement officer or
1770	correctional officer.
1771	3.  Whether the person was told that if he or she refused
1772	to submit to such test he or she would be disqualified from
1773	operating a commercial motor vehicle for a period of 1 year or,
1774	in the case of a second refusal, permanently.
1775	(8)  Based on the determination of the hearing officer
1776	pursuant to subsection (7) for both informal hearings under
1777	subsection (4) and formal hearings under subsection (6), the
1778	department shall:
1779	(a)  Sustain the disqualification for a period of 1 year
1780	for a first refusal, or permanently if such person has been
1781	previously disqualified from operating a commercial motor
1782	vehicle as a result of a refusal to submit to such tests. The
1783	disqualification period commences on the date of the arrest or
1784	issuance of the notice of disqualification, whichever is later.
1785	(b)  Sustain the disqualification:
1786	1.  For a period of 1 year if the person was driving or in
1787	actual physical control of a commercial motor vehicle, or any
1788	motor vehicle if the driver holds a commercial driver's license,
1789	and had an unlawful blood-alcohol level or breath-alcohol level
1790	of 0.08 or higher; or 6 months for a violation of s. 316.193 or
1791	for a period of 1 year
1792	2.  Permanently if the person has been previously
1793	disqualified from operating a commercial motor vehicle or his or
1794	her driving privilege has been previously suspended for driving
1795	or being in actual physical control of a commercial motor
1796	vehicle, or any motor vehicle if the driver holds a commercial
1797	driver's license, and had an unlawful blood-alcohol level or
1798	breath-alcohol level of 0.08 or higher as a result of a
1799	violation of s. 316.193.
1800
1801	The disqualification period commences on the date of the arrest
1802	or issuance of the notice of disqualification, whichever is
1803	later.
1804	(9)  A request for a formal review hearing or an informal
1805	review hearing shall not stay the disqualification. If the
1806	department fails to schedule the formal review hearing to be
1807	held within 30 days after receipt of the request therefor, the
1808	department shall invalidate the disqualification. If the
1809	scheduled hearing is continued at the department's initiative,
1810	the department shall issue a temporary driving permit limited to
1811	noncommercial vehicles which is shall be valid until the hearing
1812	is conducted if the person is otherwise eligible for the driving
1813	privilege. Such permit shall not be issued to a person who
1814	sought and obtained a continuance of the hearing. The permit
1815	issued under this subsection shall authorize driving for
1816	business purposes or employment use only.
1817	(10)  A person who is disqualified from operating a
1818	commercial motor vehicle under subsection (1) or subsection (3)
1819	is eligible for issuance of a license for business or employment
1820	purposes only under s. 322.271 if the person is otherwise
1821	eligible for the driving privilege. However, such business or
1822	employment purposes license shall not authorize the driver to
1823	operate a commercial motor vehicle.
1824	(11)  The formal review hearing may be conducted upon a
1825	review of the reports of a law enforcement officer or a
1826	correctional officer, including documents relating to the
1827	administration of a breath test or blood test or the refusal to
1828	take either test. However, as provided in subsection (6), the
1829	driver may subpoena the officer or any person who administered
1830	or analyzed a breath or blood test.
1831	(12)  The formal review hearing and the informal review
1832	hearing are exempt from the provisions of chapter 120. The
1833	department is authorized to adopt rules for the conduct of
1834	reviews under this section.
1835	(13)  A person may appeal any decision of the department
1836	sustaining the disqualification from operating a commercial
1837	motor vehicle by a petition for writ of certiorari to the
1838	circuit court in the county wherein such person resides or
1839	wherein a formal or informal review was conducted pursuant to s.
1840	322.31. However, an appeal shall not stay the disqualification.
1841	This subsection shall not be construed to provide for a de novo
1842	appeal.
1843	(14)  The decision of the department under this section
1844	shall not be considered in any trial for a violation of s.
1845	316.193, s. 322.61, or s. 322.62, nor shall any written
1846	statement submitted by a person in his or her request for
1847	departmental review under this section be admissible into
1848	evidence against him or her in any such trial. The disposition
1849	of any related criminal proceedings shall not affect a
1850	disqualification imposed pursuant to this section.
1851	(15)  This section does not preclude the suspension of the
1852	driving privilege pursuant to s. 322.2615. The driving privilege
1853	of a person who has been disqualified from operating a
1854	commercial motor vehicle also may be suspended for a violation
1855	of s. 316.193.
