The Rhode Island Senate Judiciary Committee held hearings at the State House to discuss a number of bills that could establish new motor vehicle offenses. Of the twelve bills under consideration, five are aimed specifically at strengthening penalties against drivers convicted of driving under the influence. One bill would make it a felony to drive with a license suspended for either DUI or refusing to submit to a chemical test. Another bill would allow police to obtain a search warrant to take blood, breath or urine samples for testing from drivers suspected of being under the influence.
