INTRODUCED BY   Assembly Member V. Manuel Pérez

                        JANUARY 24, 2013

   An act relating to vehicles.


	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   AB 175, as introduced, V. Manuel Pérez. Vehicles: towing and
impoundment: unlicensed drivers.
   Existing law authorizes a peace officer to impound for 30 days a
vehicle driven by a person who had never been issued a driver's
license. Existing law subjects to forfeiture, and requires the
impoundment of, a vehicle driven by an unlicensed driver who is a
registered owner of the vehicle and who has a previous misdemeanor
conviction of operating a vehicle without a driver's license.
   This bill would state the intent of the Legislature to enact
legislation to prohibit a peace officer from impounding a vehicle
solely on the basis that the driver is unlicensed.
   Vote: majority. Appropriation: no. Fiscal committee: no.
State-mandated local program: no.


THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA DO ENACT AS FOLLOWS:

  SECTION 1.  It is the intent of the Legislature to enact
legislation to prohibit a peace officer from impounding a vehicle
solely on the basis that the driver is unlicensed.
