AB 1874: Vehicles: driver’s license suspension and revocation.

California · Assembly · 2025–2026 Regular Session · last verified May 16, 2026

What AB 1874 does, verified May 16, 2026

This bill would amend the state's vehicle code to prohibit the reinstatement of a driver's license after a certain type of manslaughter conviction. Currently, the department of motor vehicles revokes a person's driving privilege immediately upon receiving a court record of a conviction for certain types of manslaughter. The driving privilege cannot be reinstated until three years have passed since the revocation. The bill would extend this prohibition to include a person convicted of those specified crimes who is sentenced to state prison or county jail, and the driving privilege would not be reinstated until three years after the person's release.
