___[X]10. Subsequent DUI Convictions within 10 Years: ___[X] For second conviction of Vehicle Code §23152 (a) or (b) there is a minimum fine, noted above, and a mandatory minimum of 90 days in the county jail. If probation is granted, probation terms shall include the following: 10 day minimum in jail (with at least 48 hours served consecutively), a minimum fine, noted above, and a two-year license suspension. Offender must complete a 18 month or 30-month alcohol program rehabilitation program. Failure to enroll or participate in the program is a mandatory minimum of 30 days in the county jail and 18-months license suspension. Termination from the program requires a jail sentence of at least 90 days. ___[X] For a third conviction of Vehicle Code §23152 (a) or (b) there is a minimum fine, noted above, a three year license suspension, and a mandatory minimum 120 days in the county jail. For a fourth or subsequent conviction, there is a minimum fine, a three-year license suspension, and a mandatory minimum of 180 days in the county jail; and it may be charged as a felony. ___[X] A conviction of Vehicle Code §23103/23103.5 (wet reckless) is treated as a §23152 prior. ___[X]11 If you are not a citizen, you are hereby advised that the conviction of the offense for which you have been charged may cause you to be deported from the United States, denied citizenship to the United States and denied re-entry into the United States should you leave the country. ___[X]12. I have only one opportunity to challenge the alleged prior conviction(s) and I knowingly, voluntarily and expressly waive my right to contest the alleged prior(s), knowing that some of the grounds for contesting the prior(s) are that I did not waive my right to an attorney, or my right to confront and examine witnesses, or my right to a jury trial, or my right against self-incrimination. ___[X]13. I understand that being under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or both, impairs my ability to safely operate a motor vehicle. Therefore, it is extremely dangerous to human life to drive while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or both. If I continue to drive while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or both, and a result of my driving, someone is killed, I can be charged with murder. ___[X] 14. I understand that the DMV may restrict or suspend my driver’s license under a procedure, which is separate from this criminal action. If the Court orders my driver’s license restricted, the restriction will begin only upon reinstatement of my driving privilege following completion of the DMV’s action, unless the DMV’s action is set aside. ___[X] 15. I understand that proof of my successful completion of an alcohol/drug program must be received at DMV headquarters in order for me to have my driving privilege reinstated, even if I am not ordered to attend such a program by the Court. I also understand that I must surrender my license to the Court if my license is suspended. ___[X] 16. I understand that the DMV will not issue a restricted driver’s license or restore my driving privilege following a restriction or suspension unless I have proof of insurance for 3 years. The DMV will suspend my license: (1) until proof of insurance is provided to the DMV and (2)upon my failure to maintain such proof during the 3-year period. ___[X] 17. I understand that the DMV may consider any of my other convictions for DUI or reckless driving, even those that are not charged in this proceeding, and may impose a more severe driver’s license restriction, suspension, or revocation as a result. ___[X] 18. If applicable – I understand that if I am convicted of a third or subsequent DUI violation I will be designated as an habitual traffic offender for 3 years after my conviction, and I will receive an enhanced sentence if I drive in violation of my license revocation. ___[X] 19. The Court will impound my vehicle at my expense for up to 90 days, unless it is in the interests of justice not to do so. The Court may also declare my vehicle to be a nuisance and order it sold following a hearing if I have 2 or more other convictions for DUI, vehicular manslaughter {Penal Code §191.5 or §192(c)(3)}, or any combination thereof, in the past 7 years. ___[X] 20. The Court may also require me to install an ignition interlock device (IID) for up to three years Installation of this device, which prevents the vehicle from starting if I have alcohol in my body, does not authorize me to drive without a valid driver’s license.

I have read and understand all of the foregoing and freely, voluntarily and expressly waive all the initialed rights and understand fully the consequences of my plea.
