JULY 1, 2012]: Sec. 10. (a) In addition to a criminal penalty imposed
for an offense under this chapter, IC 35-46-9, or IC 14-15-8 (before its
repeal), the court shall, after reviewing the person's bureau driving
record and other relevant evidence, recommend the suspension of the
person's driving privileges for the fixed period of time specified under
this section. The court may require that a period of suspension
recommended under this section be imposed, if applicable, before a
period of incarceration or after a period of incarceration, or both before
and after a period of incarceration, as long as the suspension otherwise
complies with the periods established in this section.
(b) If the court finds that the person:
(1) does not have a previous conviction of operating a vehicle or
a motorboat while intoxicated; or
(2) has a previous conviction of operating a vehicle or a
motorboat while intoxicated that occurred at least ten (10) years
before the conviction under consideration by the court;
the court shall recommend the suspension of the person's driving
privileges for at least ninety (90) days but not more than two (2) years.
(c) If the court finds that the person has a previous conviction of
operating a vehicle or a motorboat while intoxicated and the previous
conviction occurred more than five (5) years but less than ten (10)
years before the conviction under consideration by the court, the court
shall recommend the suspension of the person's driving privileges for
at least one hundred eighty (180) days but not more than two (2) years.
The court may stay the execution of that part of the suspension that
exceeds the minimum period of suspension and grant the person
probationary driving privileges for a period of time equal to the length
of the stay.
(d) If the court finds that the person has a previous conviction of
operating a vehicle or a motorboat while intoxicated and the previous
conviction occurred less than five (5) years before the conviction under
consideration by the court, the court shall recommend the suspension
of the person's driving privileges for at least one (1) year but not more
than two (2) years. The court may stay the execution of that part of the
suspension that exceeds the minimum period of suspension and grant
the person probationary driving privileges for a period of time equal to

privileges include the requirement that the person may not operate a
motor vehicle unless the motor vehicle is equipped with a functioning
certified ignition interlock device under IC 9-30-8. However, the court
may grant probationary driving privileges under this subsection without
requiring the installation of an ignition interlock device if the person is
successfully participating in a court supervised alcohol treatment
program in which the person is taking disulfiram or a similar substance
that the court determines is effective in treating alcohol abuse. The
person granted probationary driving privileges under this subsection
shall pay all costs associated with the installation of an ignition

offense involving the use of a controlled substance listed in schedule
I, II, III, IV, or V of IC 35-48-2, in which a vehicle was used in the
offense, the court shall recommend the suspension or revocation of the
person's driving privileges for at least six (6) months.

of the person charged with the offense;
(1) at the time of the alleged violation; or
(2) within the time allowed for testing under sections 9 and 10
of this chapter;
as shown by an analysis of the person's breath, blood, urine, or
other bodily substance is admissible.
(b) If, in a prosecution for an offense under this chapter,
evidence establishes that:
(1) a chemical test was performed on a test sample taken from
the person charged with the offense within the time allowed
for testing under sections 9 and 10 of this chapter; and
(2) the person charged with the offense had an alcohol
concentration equivalent to at least eight-hundredths (0.08)
gram of alcohol per:
(A) one hundred (100) milliliters of the person's blood; or
(B) two hundred ten (210) liters of the person's breath;
the trier of fact shall presume that the person charged with the
offense had an alcohol concentration equivalent to at least
eight-hundredths (0.08) gram of alcohol per one hundred (100)
milliliters of the person's blood or per two hundred ten (210) liters
of the person's breath at the time the person operated the
motorboat. However, this presumption is rebuttable.
