§ 10:162-2.3. Authorized referrals to the Intoxicated Driving
Program
(a) The Chief of the Intoxicated Driving Program may receive referrals
in writing from courts, Motor Vehicle licensing authorities, highway safety
agencies, law enforcement agencies, physicians, family members, health agencies
or social service agencies regarding persons who are believed to be posing a
public danger in the operation of a motor vehicle or vessel as a result of the
misuse of alcohol and/or drugs. The Intoxicated Driving Program may schedule an
interview with the referred individual at an appropriate Intoxicated Driver
Resource Center or at the Office of Intoxicated Driving Program for evaluation
and appropriate action. A copy of the referral document will be given to the
client at the time of the interview. Client failure to attend the interview or
any ordered treatment or referral under this chapter shall result in a
recommendation to the Division of Motor Vehicles for appropriate action.
(b)
The Intoxicated Driving Program may receive referrals from any Division of
Motor Vehicles hearing in which it is determined that alcohol or drugs may have
been involved in the operation of a motor vehicle or vessel, independent of
court findings reported to the Division as a result of court action for an
alcohol or drug related offense.
(c) The
Intoxicated Driving Program may refer a licensee who is referred as a result of
a Division of Motor Vehicles hearing to a treatment or a rehabilitation
program.
