SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Driving after a license suspension for DUI. Provides that it is an affirmative defense to a prosecution for driving after a license suspension for DUI that the defendant was operating a motor vehicle in compliance with the restrictions of a restricted license issued pursuant to § 18.2-271.1. Currently, the Commonwealth must prove that the driving was in noncompliance. The bill also provides that, notwithstanding such compliance, if the defendant unreasonably refuses to submit to a blood alcohol test in accordance with § 18.2-268.2, he shall be deemed guilty of a violation of driving after a license suspension for DUI.
