As Amends the Law Today


SECTION 1.

 Section 13200.3 is added to the Vehicle Code, to read:

13200.3.
 (a) If the prosecution agrees to a plea of guilty or nolo contendere to a charge of a violation of Section 20002 in satisfaction of, or as a substitute for, an original charge of a violation of Section 20001, the prosecution shall state for the record the factual basis for the satisfaction or substitution, including whether the defendant was involved in an accident in which a person was struck.
(b) If the court accepts the defendant’s plea of guilty or nolo contendere to a charge of a violation of Section 20002, and the prosecutor’s statement under subdivision (a) states that the driver of the vehicle was involved in an accident in which a person was struck, the court shall immediately suspend the convicted driver’s privilege to operate a motor vehicle for a period of six months.
SEC. 2.
 No reimbursement is required by this act pursuant to Section 6 of Article XIII B of the California Constitution because the only costs that may be incurred by a local agency or school district will be incurred because this act creates a new crime or infraction, eliminates a crime or infraction, or changes the penalty for a crime or infraction, within the meaning of Section 17556 of the Government Code, or changes the definition of a crime within the meaning of Section 6 of Article XIII B of the California Constitution.
