FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. John Hargitt, (703) 424-3309. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: A. Executive Summary I. Purpose of the Regulatory Action a. The publication of this proposed rule announces administrative revision of a current Army regulation covering motor vehicle traffic supervision. It outlines policy on vehicle registration; implements the 0.08 blood alcohol content as the standard for adverse administrative actions; permits involuntary extraction of blood under revised Military Rules of Evidence in cases where intoxicated driving is suspected; provides policy on towing, storing, and impounding vehicles; adopts the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration technical standards for breathalyzer equipment; establishes traffic points for seat belt and child restraint device violations; and requires that new safety requirements be included in the installation traffic code. It implements Department of Defense Directive 5525.04, ``Enforcement of the State Traffic Laws on DoD Installations'' (available at http://www.dtic.mil/whs/directives/corres/pdf/552504p.pdf), and Department of Defense Instruction 6055.04, ``DoD Traffic Safety Program'' (available at http://www.dtic.mil/whs/directives/corres/pdf/605504p.pdf). It also implements portions of Department of Defense Instruction 7730.47, ``Defense Incident-Based Reporting System (DIBRS)'' (available at http://www.dtic.mil/whs/directives/corres/pdf/773047p.pdf), that apply to dispositions. This regulation was most recently published in the Federal Register on April 12, 2005 (70 FR 18969). b. The legal authority for this regulatory action is: 70 FR 18969, 70 FR 18982, 10 U.S.C. 2575, 18 U.S.C. 13. II. Summary of the Major Provisions of the Regulatory Action in Question The major provisions of this regulatory action include: Driving privileges, suspensions, revocations, vehicle registration, traffic supervision and offense reporting, accident investigation and reporting, release of information, processing drunk drivers, and impounding privately owned vehicles. III. Cost and Benefits This proposed rule will not have a monetary effect upon the public. This proposed rule facilitates information [[Page 78990]] sharing between authorized law enforcement agencies to enhance protection of personnel and resources critical to DoD mission assurance. Costs of law enforcement, personnel, reporting systems and records management are offset through the efficient collection of data to support traffic enforcement on military installations and enhance safety through intelligence led policing efforts. These efforts allow the efficient deployment of police and security forces proactively to deter, prevent and mitigate losses due to criminal behavior and civil violations. B. Regulatory Flexibility Act The Department of the Army has determined that the Regulatory Flexibility Act does not apply because the proposed rule does not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities within the meaning of the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5 U.S.C. 601-612. C. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act The Department of the Army has determined that the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act does not apply because the proposed rule does not include a mandate that may result in estimated costs to State, local or tribal governments in the aggregate, or the private sector, of $100 million or more. D. National Environmental Policy Act The Department of the Army has determined that the National Environmental Policy Act does not apply because the proposed rule does not have an adverse impact on the environment. E. Paperwork Reduction Act The Department of the Army has determined that the Paperwork Reduction Act doesn't apply. There is no additional burden for collection of information from the public or the addition of additional government forms associated with this rulemaking. Information collected to support this proposed rule is that information normally collected in the performance of law and order and traffic enforcement operations across the United States. Information collected is used to determine wants and warrants issued for criminal offenders, persons driving under suspended or revoked licenses, and traffic point assessment. Failure to provide driver's license or vehicle registration information may result in detention and fines. Procedures and business processes outlined in this proposed rule provide uniform policy concerning military traffic supervision practices to improve productivity, efficiency, and effectiveness of law enforcement traffic supervision, reporting efforts including the reduction of information collection burdens on the public and the improvement of law enforcement service delivery while maintaining privacy, confidentiality and information systems protections. F. Executive Order 12630 (Government Actions and Interference With Constitutionally Protected Property Rights) The Department of the Army has determined that Executive Order 12630 does not apply because the proposed rule does not impair private property rights. G. Executive Order 12866 (Regulatory Planning and Review) and Executive Order 13563 (Improving Regulation and Regulatory Review) Executive Orders 13563 and 12866 direct agencies to assess all costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public health and safety effects, distribute impacts, and equity). Executive Order 13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and benefits, of reducing costs, of harmonizing rules, and of promoting flexibility. This proposed rule has been designated a ``significant regulatory action,'' although not economically significant, under section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866. Accordingly, the proposed rule has been reviewed by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB). H. Executive Order 13045 (Protection of Children From Environmental Health Risk and Safety Risks) The Department of the Army has determined that according to the criteria defined in Executive Order 13045. This proposed rule does not apply since it does not implement or require actions impacting environmental health or safety risks to children. I. Executive Order 13132 (Federalism) The Department of the Army has determined that according to the criteria defined in Executive Order 13132 this proposed rule does not apply because it will not have a substantial effect on the States, on the relationship between the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among various levels of government.

(b) Implied consent to impoundment. Any person granted the privilege to operate or register a motor vehicle on a military installation shall be deemed to have given his or her consent for the removal and temporary impoundment of the POV when it is parked illegally, or for unreasonable periods, as determined by the installation commander or applicable authority, interfering with military operations, creating a safety hazard, disabled by accident, left unattended in a restricted or controlled area, or abandoned. Such persons further agree to reimburse the United States for the cost of towing and storage should their motor vehicle be removed or impounded. Existence of these conditions will be determined by the installation commander or designee. (c) Any person who operates, registers, or is in control of a motor vehicle on a military installation involved in a motor vehicle or criminal infraction shall be informed that notice of the violation of law or regulation will be forwarded to the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) of the host state and/or home of record for the individual, and to the NHTSA's National Driver Register, when applicable. Sec. 634.9 Suspension or revocation of driving or privately owned vehicle registration privileges. The installation commander or designee may for cause, or any lawful reason, administratively suspend or revoke driving privileges on the installation. The suspension or revocation of installation driving privileges or POV registrations, for lawful reasons unrelated to traffic violations or safe vehicle operation, is not limited or restricted by this part. (a) Suspension. (1) Driving privileges are usually suspended when other measures fail to improve a driver's performance. Measures should include counseling, remedial driving training, and rehabilitation programs if violator is entitled to the programs. Driving privileges may also be suspended for up to six months if a driver continually violates installation parking regulations. The commander will determine standards for suspension based on frequency of parking violations and publish those standards. Aboard Navy installations, any vehicle parked in a fire lane will be towed at the owner's expense. Any vehicle parked without authorization in an area restricted due to force protection measures may subject the driver to immediate suspension by the installation commanding officer. Vehicle will be towed at the owner's and/or operator's expense. (2) The installation commander has discretionary power to withdraw the authorization of active duty military personnel, DOD civilian employees, and non-appropriated funds (NAF) employees, contractors and subcontractors to operate Government vehicles. (3) Immediate suspension of installation or overseas command POV driving privileges pending resolution of an intoxicated driving incident is authorized for active duty military personnel, family members, retired members of the military services, DOD civilian personnel, and others with installation or overseas command driving privileges, regardless of the geographic location of the intoxicated driving incident. Suspension is authorized for non-DOD affiliated civilians only with respect to incidents occurring on the installation or in areas subject to military traffic supervision. After a review of available information as specified in Sec. 634.11, installation driving privileges will be immediately suspended pending resolution of the intoxicated driving accident in the following circumstances: (i) Refusal to take or complete a lawfully requested chemical test to determine contents of blood for alcohol or other drugs. (ii) Operating a motor vehicle with a blood alcohol content (BAC) of 0.08 percent by volume (0.08 grams per 100 milliliters) or higher or in violation of the law of the jurisdiction that is being assimilated on the military installation. (iii) Operating a motor vehicle with a BAC of 0.05 percent by volume but less than 0.08 percent blood alcohol by volume in violation of the law of the jurisdiction in which the vehicle is being operated if the jurisdiction imposes a suspension solely on the basis of the BAC level (as measured in grams per 100 milliliters). (iv) On an arrest report or other official documentation of the circumstances of an apprehension for intoxicated driving. (b) Revocation. (1) The revocation of installation or overseas command POV driving privileges is a severe administrative measure to be exercised for serious moving violations or when other available corrective actions fail to produce the desired driver improvement. Revocation of the driving privilege will be for a specified period, but never less than six months, applies at all military installations, and remains in effect upon reassignment. (2) Driving privileges are subject to revocation when an individual fails to comply with any of the conditions requisite to the granting privilege (see Sec. 634.6). Revocation of installation driving and registration privileges is authorized for military personnel, family members, civilian employees of DOD, contractors, and other individuals with installation driving privileges. For civilian guests, revocation is authorized only with respect to incidents occurring on the installation or in the areas subject to military traffic supervision. (3) Driving privileges will be revoked for a mandatory period of not less than one year in the following circumstances: (i) The installation commander or designee has determined that the person lawfully apprehended for driving under the influence refused to submit to or complete a test to measure the alcohol content in the blood, or detect the [[Page 78994]] presence of any other drug, as required by the law of the jurisdiction, or installation traffic code, or by Service directive. (ii) A conviction, non-judicial punishment, or a military or civilian administrative action resulting in the suspension or revocation of driver's license for intoxicated driving. Appropriate official documentation of such conviction is required as the basis for revocation. (4) When temporary suspensions under paragraph (a)(3) of this section are followed by revocations, the period of revocation is computed beginning from the date the original suspension was imposed, exclusive of any period during which full driving privileges may have been restored pending resolution of charges. (Example: Privileges were initially suspended on January 1, 2000 for a charge of intoxicated driving with a BAC of 0.14 percent. A hearing was held, extreme family hardship was substantiated, and privileges were restored on February 1 pending resolution of the charge. On March 1, 2000, the driver was convicted for intoxicated driving. The mandatory 1-year revocation period will consist of January 2000 plus March 2000 through January 2001, for a total of 12 months with no installation driving privileges). (c) Army provost marshals will use the automated VRS to develop and maintain records showing that an individual's driving privileges have been revoked. Sec. 634.10 Remedial driver training programs. (a) Navy activities will comply with OPNAVINST 5100.12 Series, and Marine Corps activities with current edition of MCO 5100.19C for establishment of remedial training programs. (b) Installation commanders may establish a remedial driver- training program to instruct and educate personnel requiring additional training. Personnel may be referred to a remedial program on the basis of their individual driving history or incidents requiring additional training. The curriculum should provide instruction to improve driving performance and compliance with traffic laws. (c) Installation/unit commanders will direct attendance at an Army Traffic Safety Training Program remedial driving class for any person who has acquired more than five but less than twelve traffic points within a six-month period. Commanders can refer to sections below for detailed determination of points per infraction. Personnel may be referred to a remedial program on the basis of their individual driving history or incidents requiring additional training. (d) Installation commanders may schedule periodic courses, or if not practical, arrange for participation in courses conducted by local civil authorities. (e) Active Duty Soldiers and Department of the Army (DA) Civilians required to drive Government owned vehicles may attend remedial courses on the installation, or similar courses off the installation, which incur no expense to the Government. Contractor employees and family members of military personnel will attend similar remedial courses off the installation, which incur no expense to the Government. (f) Commanders will require individuals, inside or outside normal duty hours, to attend the courses or lose installation driving privileges. (g) State approved driver improvement programs may be used to fulfill the requirement where an Army standardized course is not provided. Sec. 634.11 Administrative due process for suspensions and revocations. (a) Individual Services will promulgate separate regulations establishing administrative due process procedures for suspension or revocation of driving privileges. The procedures in paragraphs (b) and (c) of this section apply to actions taken by Army commanders with respect to Army military personnel and family members and to civilian personnel operating motor vehicles on Army installations. For Marine Corps users, the provisions of this section apply. For Air Force users, a preliminary suspension for intoxicated driving remains in effect until the installation commander makes a final decision. Requested hearings must take place within a reasonable period, which is determined by the installation commander. (b) For offenses other than intoxicated driving, suspension or revocation of the installation driving privilege will not become effective until the installation commander or designee notifies the affected person and offers that person an administrative hearing. Suspension or revocation will take place 14 calendar days after written notice is received unless the affected person makes an application for a hearing within this period. Such application will stay the pending suspension or revocation for a period of 14 calendar days. (1) If, due to action by the government, a hearing is not held within 14 calendar days, the suspension will not take place until such time as the person is granted a hearing and is notified of the action of the installation commander or designee. However, if the affected person requests that the hearing be continued to a date beyond the 14- day period, the suspension or revocation will become effective immediately on receipt of notice that the request for continuance has been granted, and remain in force pending a hearing at a scheduled hearing date. (2) If it is determined as a result of a hearing to suspend or revoke the affected person's driving privilege, the suspension or revocation will become effective when the person receives the written notification of such action. In the event that written notification cannot be verified, either through a return receipt for mail or delivery through command channels, the hearing authority will determine the effective date on a case-by-case basis. (3) If the revocation or suspension is imposed after such hearing, the person whose driving privilege has been suspended or revoked will have the right to appeal or request reconsideration. Such requests must be forwarded through command channels to the installation commander within 14 calendar days from the date the individual is notified of the suspension or revocation resulting from the administrative hearing. The suspension or revocation will remain in effect pending a final ruling on the request. Requests for restricted privileges will be considered per Sec. 634.15. (4) If driving privileges are temporarily restored (i.e. for family hardship) pending resolution of charges, the period of revocation (after final authority determination) will still total the mandatory 12 months. The final date of the revocation will be adjusted to account for the period when the violator's privileges were temporarily restored, as this period does not count towards the revocation time. (c) For drunk driving or driving under the influence offenses, reliable evidence readily available will be presented promptly to an individual designated by the installation commander for review and authorization for immediate suspension of installation driving privileges. (1) The reviewer should be any officer to include GS-11 and above, designated in writing by the installation or garrison commander whose primary duties are not in the field of law enforcement. (2) Reliable evidence includes witness statements, military or civilian police report of apprehension, chemical test results if completed, refusal to consent to complete chemical testing, videotapes, statements by the [[Page 78995]] apprehended individual, field sobriety or preliminary breath tests results, and other pertinent evidence. Immediate suspension should not be based solely on published lists of arrested persons, statements by parties not witnessing the apprehension, or telephone conversations or other information not supported by documented and reliable evidence. (3) Reviews normally will be accomplished within the first normal duty day following final assembly of evidence. (4) Installation commanders may authorize the installation law enforcement officer to conduct reviews and authorize suspensions in cases where the designated reviewer is not reasonably available and, in the judgment of the installation law enforcement officer, such immediate action is warranted. Air Force Security Forces personnel act in an advisory capacity to installation commanders. Review by the designated officer will follow as soon as practical in such cases. When a suspension notice is based on the law enforcement officer's review, there is no requirement for confirmation notice following subsequent review by the designated officer. (5) For active duty military personnel, final written notice of suspension for intoxicated driving will be provided to the individual's chain of command for immediate presentation to the individual. Air Force Security Forces provide a copy of the temporary suspension to the individual at the time of the incident or may provide a copy of the final determination at the time of the incident, as pre-determined by the final action authority. (6) For civilian personnel, written notice of suspension for intoxicated driving will normally be provided without delay via certified mail. Air Force Security Forces personnel provide a copy of the temporary suspension to the individual at the time of the incident or may provide a copy of the final determination at the time of the incident, as pre-determined by the final action authority. If the person is employed on the installation, such notice will be forwarded through the military or civilian supervisor. When the notice of suspension is forwarded through the supervisor, the person whose privileges are suspended will be required to provide written acknowledgment of receipt of the suspension notice. (7) Notices of suspension for intoxicated driving will include the following: (i) The fact that the suspension can be made a revocation under Sec. 634.9(b). (ii) The right to request, in writing, a hearing before the installation commander or designee to determine if post driving privileges will be restored pending resolution of the charge; and that such request must be made within 14 calendar days of the final notice of suspension. (iii) The right of military personnel to be represented by counsel at his or her own expense and to present evidence and witnesses at his or her own expense. Installation commanders will determine the availability of any local active duty representatives requested. (iv) The right of Department of Defense civilian employees to have a personal representative present at the administrative hearing in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. (v) Written acknowledgment of receipt to be signed by the individual whose privileges are to be suspended or revoked. (8) If a hearing is requested, it must take place within 14 calendar days of receipt of the request. The suspension for intoxicated driving will remain in effect until a decision has been made by the installation commander or designee, but will not exceed 14 calendar days after the hearing while awaiting the decision. If no decision has been made by that time, full driving privileges will be restored until such time as the accused is notified of a decision to continue the suspension. (9) Hearing on suspension actions under Sec. 634.9(a) for drunk or impaired driving pending resolution of charges will cover only the following pertinent issues of whether-- (i) The law enforcement official had reasonable grounds to believe the person was driving or in actual physical control of a motor vehicle under the influence of alcohol or other drugs. (ii) The person was lawfully cited or apprehended for a driving under the influence offense. (iii) The person was lawfully requested to submit his or her blood, breath, or urine in order to determine the content of alcohol or other drugs, and was informed of the implied consent policy (consequences of refusal to take or complete the test). (iv) The person refused to submit to the test for alcohol or other drug content of blood, breath, or urine; failed to complete the test; submitted to the test and the result was 0.08 or higher blood alcohol content, or between 0.05 and 0.08 in violation of the law of the jurisdiction in which the vehicle in being operated if the jurisdiction imposes a suspension solely on the basis of the BAC level; or showed results indicating the presence of other drugs for an on-post apprehension or in violation of State laws for an off-post apprehension. (v) The testing methods were valid and reliable and the results accurately evaluated. (10) For revocation actions under Sec. 634.9(b)(3) for intoxicated driving, the revocation is mandatory on conviction or other findings that confirm the charge. (Pleas of ``nolo contendere'' are considered equivalent to guilty pleas). (i) Revocations are effective as of the date of conviction or other findings that confirm the charges. Test refusal revocations will be in addition to any other revocation incurred during a hearing. Hearing authority will determine if revocations for multiple offenses will run consecutively or concurrently taking into consideration if offenses occurred on same occasion or different times, dates. The exception is that test refusal will be one year automatic revocation in addition to any other suspension. (ii) The notice that revocation is automatic may be placed in the suspension letter. If it does not appear in the suspension letter, a separate letter must be sent and revocation is not effective until receipt of the written notice. (iii) Revocations cancel any full or restricted driving privileges that may have been restored during suspension and the resolution of the charges. Requests for restoration of full driving privileges are not authorized. (11) The Army Vehicle Registration System will be utilized to maintain infractions by individuals on Army installations. Sec. 634.12 Army administrative actions against intoxicated drivers. Army commanders will take appropriate action against intoxicated drivers. These actions may include the following: (a) A written reprimand, administrative in nature, will be issued to active duty Soldiers in the cases described in this paragraph. Any general officer, and any officer frocked to the grade of brigadier general, may issue this reprimand. Filing of the reprimand will be in accordance with the provisions of AR 600-37. (1) Conviction by courts-martial or civilian court or imposition of non-judicial punishment for an offense of drunk or impaired driving either on or off the installation. (2) Refusal to take or failure to complete a lawfully requested test to measure alcohol or drug content of the [[Page 78996]] blood, breath, or urine, either on or off the installation, when there is reasonable belief of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. (3) Driving or being in physical control of a motor vehicle or watercraft (as described above) on post when the blood alcohol content is 0.08 percent or higher, irrespective of other charges, or either on or off post when the blood alcohol content is in violation of the law of the State involved. (4) Driving, or being in physical control of a motor vehicle, either on or off the installation, when lawfully conducted chemical tests reflect the presence of illegal drugs. (b) Review by the commander of the service records of active duty soldiers apprehended for offenses described in paragraph (a) of this section to determine if the following action(s) should be taken-- (1) Administrative reduction per AR 600-8-19; or (2) Bar to reenlistment per AR 601-280; or (3) Administrative separation per AR 635-200. (c) Federal civilian employees may be subject to administrative actions in accordance with 5 CFR part 752. Sec. 634.13 Alcohol and drug abuse programs. (a) Commanders will refer military personnel suspected of drug or alcohol abuse for evaluation in the following circumstances: (1) Behavior indicative of alcohol or drug abuse. (2) Continued inability to drive a motor vehicle safely because of alcohol or drug abuse. (b) The commander will ensure military personnel are referred to the installation alcohol and drug abuse program or other comparable facilities when they are convicted of, or receive an official administrative action for, any offense involving driving under the influence. A first offender may be referred to treatment if evidence of substance abuse exists in addition to the offense of intoxicated driving. The provisions of this paragraph do not limit the commander's prerogatives concerning other actions that may be taken against an offender under separate Service/Agency polices (Army, see AR 600-85. Marine Corps, see MCO P1700.24B). (c) Active duty Army personnel apprehended for drunk driving, on or off the installation, will be referred to the local Army Substance Abuse Program (ASAP) for evaluation within 14 calendar days to determine if the person is dependent on alcohol or other drugs which will result in enrollment in treatment in accordance with AR 600-85. A copy of all reports on military personnel and DOD civilian employees apprehended for intoxicated driving will be forwarded to the installation alcohol and drug abuse facility. (d) Active duty Navy personnel apprehended for drunk driving on or off the installation will be screened by the respective SARP facility within 14 calendar days to determine if the individual is dependent on alcohol or other drugs. Active duty Marines apprehended for intoxicated driving, on or off the installation, will be referred to interview by a Level II substance abuse counselor within 14 calendar days for evaluation and determination of the appropriate level of treatment required. Subsequent to this evaluation, the Marine will be assigned to the appropriate treatment programs as prescribed by MCO P1700.24B. (e) The Services/Agencies may develop preventive treatment and rehabilitative programs for civilian employees with alcohol-related problems. (f) Army supervisors of civilian employees apprehended for intoxicated driving will advise employees of ASAP services available. Civilian employees apprehended for intoxicated driving while on duty will be referred to the ASAP or comparable facility for evaluation in accordance with AR 600-85. Army commanders will ensure that sponsors encourage family members apprehended for drunk driving seek ASAP evaluation and assistance. (g) Navy and DLA civilian personnel charged with intoxicated driving will be referred to the Civilian Employee Assistance Program in accordance with 5 CFR part 792. Such referral does not exempt the employee from appropriate administrative or disciplinary actions under civilian personnel regulations. (h) Marine Corps civilian employees charged with intoxicated driving, on or off the installation, will be referred to the Employee Assistance Program as prescribed by MCO P1700.24B. Marine family members charged with intoxicated driving, on or off the installation, will be provided assistance as addressed in MCO P1700.24B. Such referral and assistance does not exempt the individual from appropriate administrative or disciplinary action under current civilian personnel regulations or State laws. (i) For the Army, DLA, and the Marine Corps, installation driving privileges of any person who refuses to submit to, or fails to complete, chemical testing for blood-alcohol content when apprehended for intoxicated driving, or convicted of intoxicated driving, will not be reinstated unless the person successfully completes either an alcohol education or treatment program sponsored by the installation, state, county, or municipality, or other program evaluated as acceptable by the installation commander. (j) Active duty Air Force personnel apprehended for drunk driving, on or off the installation, will be referred by their respective chain of command to the Air Force Substance Abuse office for evaluation in accordance with AFI 44-121/Alcohol Drug Abuse & Treatment Program, and local policies within seven days. (k) Local installation commanders will determine if active duty Air Force personnel involved in any alcohol incident will immediately be subjected to a urinalysis for drug content. If consent is not given for the test, a command-directed test will be administered in accordance with local policies. Sec. 634.14 Restoration of driving privileges upon acquittal of intoxicated driving. The suspension of driving privileges for military and civilian personnel shall be restored if a final disposition indicates a finding of not guilty, charges are dismissed or reduced to an offense not amounting to intoxicated driving, or where an equivalent determination is made in a non-judicial proceeding. The following are exceptions to the rule in which suspensions will continue to be enforced. (a) The preliminary suspension was based on refusal to take a BAC test. (b) The preliminary suspension resulted from a valid BAC test, (unless disposition of the charges was based on invalidity of the BAC test). In the case of a valid BAC test, the suspension will continue, pending completion of a hearing as specified in Sec. 634.11. In such instances, the individual will be notified in writing that the suspension will continue and of the opportunity to request a hearing within 14 calendar days. (1) At the hearing, the arrest report, the commander's report of official disposition, information presented by the individual, and such other information as the hearing officer may deem appropriate will be considered. (2) If the hearing officer determines by a preponderance of evidence that the individual was engaged in intoxicated driving, the revocation will be for 1 year from the date of the original preliminary suspension. (c) The person was driving or in physical control of a motor vehicle [[Page 78997]] while under a preliminary suspension or revocation. (d) An administrative determination has been made by the state or host nation licensing authority to suspend or revoke driving privileges. (e) The individual has failed to complete a formally directed substance abuse or driver's training program. Sec. 634.15 Restricted driving privileges or probation. (a) For the Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, and DLA, the installation commander, or his or her designee may modify a suspension or revocation of driving privileges in certain cases per paragraph (d) of this section. (b) Army requests for restricted driving privileges subsequent to suspension or revocation of installation driving privileges will be referred to the installation commander or designee, except for intoxicated driving cases, which must be referred to the General Court Martial Convening Authority. Withdrawal of restricted driving privileges is within the installation commander's discretion. (c) Probation or restricted driving privileges will not be granted to any person whose driver license or right to operate motor vehicles is under suspension or revocation by a state, Federal, or host nation licensing authority. Prior to application for probation or restricted driving privileges, a state, Federal, or host nation driver's license or right to operate motor vehicles must be reinstated. The burden of proof for reinstatement of driving privileges lies with the person applying for probation or restricted driving privileges. Revocations for test refusals shall remain. (d) The installation commander or designee may grant restricted driving privileges or probation on a case-by-case basis provided the person's state or host nation driver's license or right to operate motor vehicles remains valid to accommodate any of the following reasons: (1) Mission requirements. (2) Unusual personal or family hardships. (3) Delays exceeding 90 days, not attributed to the person concerned, in the formal disposition of an apprehension or charges that are the basis for any type of suspension or revocation. (4) When there is no reasonably available alternate means of transportation to officially assigned duties. In this instance, a limited exception can be granted for the sole purpose of driving directly to and from the place of duty. (e) The terms and limitations on a restricted driving privilege (for example, authorization to drive to and from place of employment or duty, or selected installation facilities such as hospital, commissary, and or other facilities) will be specified in writing and provided to the individual concerned. Persons found in violation of the restricted privilege are subject to revocation action as prescribed in Sec. 634.9. (f) The conditions and terms of probation will be specified in writing and provided to the individual concerned. The original suspension or revocation term in its entirety may be activated to commence from the date of the violation of probation. In addition, separate action may be initiated based on the commission of any traffic, criminal, or military offense that constitutes a probation violation. (g) DOD employees and contractors, who can demonstrate that suspension or revocation of installation driving privileges would constructively remove them from employment, may be given a limiting suspension/revocation that restricts driving on the installation or activity (or in the overseas command) to the most direct route to and from their respective work sites (5 U.S.C. 2302(b)(10)). This is not to be construed as limiting the commander from suspension or revocation of on-duty driving privileges or seizure of Optional Form (OF) 346, U.S. Government Motor Vehicle Operator's Identification Card even if this action would constructively remove a person from employment in those instances in which the person's duty requires driving from place to place on the installation. Sec. 634.16 Reciprocal State-Military action. (a) Commanders will recognize the interests of the states in matters of POV administration and driver licensing. Statutory authority may exist within some states or host nations for reciprocal suspension and revocation of driving privileges. See subpart D of this part for additional information on exchanging and obtaining information with civilian law enforcement agencies concerning infractions by Armed Service personnel off post. Installation commanders will honor the reciprocal authority and direct the installation law enforcement officer to pursue reciprocity with state or host nation licensing authorities. Upon receipt of written or other official law enforcement communication relative to the suspension/revocation of driving privileges, the receiving installation will terminate driving privileges as if violations occurred within its own jurisdiction. (b) When imposing a suspension or revocation for an off- installation offense, the effective date should be the same as civil disposition, or the date that state or host-nation driving privileges are suspended or revoked. This effective date can be retroactive. (c) If statutory authority does not exist within the state or host nation for formal military reciprocity, the procedures below will be adopted: (1) Commanders will recognize official documentation of suspensions/revocations imposed by state or host nation authorities. Administrative actions (suspension/revocations, or if recognized, point assessment) for moving traffic violations off the installation should not be less than required for similar offenses on the installation. When notified by state or host nation authorities of a suspension or revocation, the person's OF 346 may also be suspended. (2) In CONUS locations, the host and issuing state licensing authority will be notified as soon as practical when a person's installation driving privileges are suspended or revoked for any period, and immediately for refusal to submit to a lawful BAC test. The notification will be sent to the appropriate state DMV(s) per reciprocal agreements. In the absence of electronic communication technology, the appropriate state DMV(s) will be notified by official certified mail. The notification will include the basis for the suspension/revocation and the BAC level if applicable. (d) In OCONUS locations, installation commanders must follow provisions of the applicable Status of Forces Agreement (SOFA), the law of the host nation concerning reciprocal suspension and revocation, and other international agreements. To the extent an agreement concerning reciprocity may be permitted at a particular overseas installation, the commander must have prior authorization to negotiate and conclude such an international agreement in accordance with applicable international agreements, DODD 5530.3, International Agreements, June 87, and other individual Service instructions. Sec. 634.17 Extensions of suspensions and revocations. (a) Driving in violation of a suspension or revocation imposed under this part will result in the original period of suspension or revocation being increased by two years. In addition, administrative action may be initiated based on the commission of [[Page 78998]] any traffic, criminal, or military offenses, for example, active duty military personnel driving on the installation in violation of a lawful order. (b) For each subsequent determination within a five-year period that revocation is authorized under Sec. 634.9, military personnel, DOD civilians, contractors and NAF employees will be prohibited from obtaining or using an OF 346 for six months for each such incident. A determination whether DOD civilian personnel should be prohibited from obtaining or using an OF 346 will be made in accordance with the laws and regulations applicable to civilian personnel. This does not preclude a commander from imposing such prohibition for a first offense, or for a longer period of time for a first or subsequent offense, or for such other reasons as may be authorized. (c) Commanders may extend a suspension or revocation of driving privileges on personnel until completion of an approved remedial driver training course or alcohol or drug counseling programs after proof is provided. (d) Commanders may extend a suspension or revocation of driving privileges on civilian personnel convicted of intoxicated driving on the installation until successful completion of a state or installation approved alcohol or drug rehabilitation program. (e) For Navy personnel for good cause, the appropriate authority may withdraw the restricted driving privilege and continue the suspension or revocation period (for example, driver at fault in the traffic accident, or driver cited for a moving violation). Sec. 634.18 Reinstatement of driving privileges. Reinstatement of driving privileges shall be automatic, provided all revocations applicable have expired, proper proof of completion of remedial driving course and/or substance abuse counseling has been provided, and reinstatement requirements of individual's home state and/or state the individual may have been suspended in, have been met. Subpart C--Motor Vehicle Registration Sec. 634.19 Registration policy. (a) Services may require motor vehicle registration according to guidance in this regulation and in policies of each Service and DLA. A person who lives or works on an installation or often uses the facilities may be required to register his or her vehicle. Where required, individuals who access the installation for regular activities such as use of medical facilities and regular recurring activities on the installation should register their vehicles according to a standard operating procedure established by the installation commander. The person need not own the vehicle to register it, but must have a lease agreement, power of attorney, or notarized statement from the owner of the vehicle specifying the inclusive dates for which permission to use the vehicle has been granted. (b) Vehicles intended for construction and material handling, or used solely off the road, are usually not registered as motor vehicles. Installation commanders may require registration of off-road vehicles and bicycles under a separate local system. (c) Commanders can grant limited temporary registration for up to 30 days, pending permanent registration, or in other circumstances for longer terms. (d) DD Form 2220 vehicle decal. The Department of Defense does not require vehicles entering Department of Defense installations to be registered via the DD Form 2220 vehicle decal; however installations may utilize DD Form 2220 for registration at the installation commander's discretion. All privately owned vehicles (POVs) must continue to be licensed, registered, inspected, and insured in accordance with state and local laws. (e) Rental vehicles are considered POVs for purposes of installation entry and access control. The vehicle rental contract will suffice as proper licensing, registration and insurance for installation access. (f) Army Installation commanders may establish local visitor identification for individuals who will be on installation for less than 30 days. The local policy will provide for use of temporary passes that establish a start and end date for which the pass is valid. Army installation commanders must refer to AR 190-13, chapter 8, for guidance concerning installation access control (Air Force, see AFI 31- 113). Other Armed Services and DLA may develop and issue visitor passes locally. (g) The conditions in Sec. 634.20 must be met to operate a POV on an Army and DLA Installation. Other Armed Services that do not require registration will enforce Sec. 634.20 through traffic enforcement actions. Additionally, failure to comply with Sec. 634.20 may result in administrative suspension or revocation of driving privileges. Sec. 634.20 Privately Owned Vehicle operation requirements. Personnel seeking to register their POVs on military installations within the United States or its territories and in overseas areas will comply with the following requirements. (Registration in overseas commands may be modified in accordance with international agreements or military necessity.) (a) Possess a valid state, overseas command, host nation or international drivers license (within appropriate classification), supported by a DD Form 2-Series Identification Card, or other appropriate identification for DOD civilians, contractors and retirees. (b) Possess a certificate of state registration as required by the state in which the vehicle is registered. (c) Comply with the minimum requirements of the automobile insurance laws or regulations of the state or host nation. In overseas commands where host nation laws do not require minimum personal injury and property damage liability insurance, the major overseas commander will set reasonable liability insurance requirements for registration and/or operation of POVs within the confines of military installations and areas where the commander exercises jurisdiction. Prior to implementation, insurance requirements in host states or nations should be formally coordinated with the appropriate host agency. (d) Satisfactorily complete a safety and mechanical vehicle inspection by the state or jurisdiction in which the vehicle is licensed. If neither state nor local jurisdiction requires a periodic safety inspection, installation commanders may require and conduct an annual POV safety inspection; however, inspection facilities must be reasonably accessible to those requiring use. Inspections will meet minimum standards established by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) in 49 CFR part 570. Lights, turn signals, brake lights, horn, wipers, and pollution control devices and standards in areas where applicable, should be included in the inspection. Vehicles modified from factory standards and determined unsafe may be denied access and registration. (e) Possess current proof of compliance with local vehicle emission inspection if required by the state, and maintenance requirements. (f) Vehicles that have been modified in an unsafe manner, as determined by an inspection that is consistent with the standards in 49 CFR part 570, will be denied registration. Sec. 634.21 Department of Defense Form 2220. (a) Use. The DD Form 2220 may be used to identify registered POVs on Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps, [[Page 78999]] and DLA installations or facilities. The requirement to affix the DD Form 2220 to the front windshield or bumper of registered vehicles is waived for general officers and flag officers of all Armed Services, Armed Service Secretaries, political appointees, members of Congress, and the diplomatic corps. (1) Each Service and DLA will procure its own forms and installation and expiration tabs. For the Army, the basic decal will be ordered through publications channels and remain on the vehicle until the registered owner disposes of the vehicle, separates from active duty or other conditions specified in paragraph (a)(2) of this section. Air Force, DLA, and Army retirees may retain DD Form 2220. Service retirees may be required to follow the same registration procedures as active duty personnel. Upon termination of affiliation with the Service, the registered owner or authorized operator is responsible for removing the DD Form 2220 from the vehicle and surrender of the decal to the issuing office. Service installations requiring registration are responsible for the costs of procuring decals with the name of their installation and related expiration tabs. (2) Services and DLA, will require removal of the DD Form 2220, and installation and expiration tabs from POVs by the owner prior to departure from their current installation, retirement, or separation from military or Government affiliation, termination of ownership, registration, liability insurance, or other conditions further identified by local policy. (b) Specifications. (1) DD Form 2220 and installation and expiration tabs will consist of international blue borders and printing on a white background. Printer information will include the following: (i) Form title (Department of Defense Registered Vehicle). (ii) Alphanumeric individual form identification number. (iii) DOD seal. (2) Name of the installation will be specified on a separate tab abutting the decal. Each Service or DLA may choose optional color codes for the registrant. Army and installations having vehicle registration programs will use the following standard color scheme for the installation tab: (i) Blue-officers. (ii) Red-enlisted. (iii) Green DA civilian employees (including NAF employees). (iv) Black-contractor personnel and other civilians employed on the installation. White will be used for contract personnel on Air Force installations. (3) An expiration tab identifying the month and year (6-2004), the year (2000) or simply ``00'' will be abutted to right of the decal. For identification purposes, the date of expiration will be shown in bold block numbers on a lighter contrasting background such as traffic yellow, lime, or orange. (4) DD Form 2220 and any adjoining tabs will be theft resistant when applied to glass, metal, painted, or rubberized surfaces and manufactured so as to obliterate or self destruct when removal is attempted. Local policy guided by state or host nation laws will specify the exact placement of DD Form 2220. (5) Services may issue military and retired personnel grade insignia that will be affixed on placards, approximately five inches by eight inches in size, and placed on the driver's side dashboard. Placards should be removed from view when the vehicle is not located on a military installation. Sec. 634.22 Gold Star decals. (a) For Army installations only, a serial-numbered Gold Star vehicle identification decal may be issued in accordance with guidance from the Army's Office of the Assistant Chief of Staff for Installation Management. The decals may be obtained through Army installation Survivor Outreach Services and may serve as a temporary vehicle registration in accordance with DoD security standards. (b) Gold Star decals issued to identify Surviving Family Members of deceased Soldiers may be used to identify POVs and expedite processing for installation access. (c) Gold Star decals do not exempt vehicles and passengers from DOD and Army installation access screening procedures. (d) A physical and visual inspection of ID cards shall be conducted by security forces when required for installation access. Sec. 634.23 Termination or denial of registration. Installation commanders or their designated representatives will terminate POV registration or deny initial registration under the following conditions (decal and tabs will be removed from the vehicle when registration is terminated): (a) The owner fails to comply with the registration requirements. (b) The owner sells or disposes of the POV, is released from active duty, separated from the Service, or terminates civilian employment with a military Service or DOD agency. Army and Air Force personnel on a permanent change of station will retain the DD Form 2220 if the vehicle is moved to their new duty station. (c) The owner is other than an active duty military or civilian employee and discontinues regular operations of the POV on the installation. (d) The owner's state, overseas command, or host nation driver's license is suspended or revoked, or the installation driving privilege is revoked. Air Force does not require removal of the DD Form 2220 when driving privileges are suspended for an individual. When vehicle registration is terminated in conjunction with the revocation of installation driving privileges, the affected person must apply to re- register the POV after the revocation expires. Registration should not be terminated if other family members having installation driving privileges require use of the vehicle. Sec. 634.24 Specified consent to impoundment. Personnel registering POVs on DOD installations must consent to the impoundment policy. POV registration forms will contain or have appended to them a certificate with the following statement: ``I am aware that (insert number and title of separate Service or DLA directive) and the installation traffic code provide for the removal and temporary impoundment of privately owned motor vehicles that are either parked illegally, or for unreasonable periods, interfering with military operations, creating a safety hazard, disabled by accident, left unattended in a restricted or control area, or abandoned. I agree to reimburse the United States for the cost of towing and storage should my motor vehicle(s), because of such circumstances, be removed and impounded.'' Subpart D--Traffic Supervision Sec. 634.25 Traffic planning and codes. (a) Safe and efficient movement of traffic on an installation requires traffic supervision. A traffic supervision program includes traffic circulation planning and control of motor vehicle traffic; publication and enforcement of traffic laws and regulations; and investigation of motor vehicle accidents. (b) Installation commanders will develop traffic circulation plans that provide for the safest and most efficient use of primary and secondary roads. Circulation planning should be a major part of all long-range master planning at installations. The traffic circulation plan is developed by the installation law enforcement officer, engineer, safety officer, and other concerned staff agencies. Highway engineering [[Page 79000]] representatives from adjacent civil communities must be consulted to ensure the installation plan is compatible with the current and future circulation plan of the community. The plan should include the following: (1) Normal and peak load routing based on traffic control studies. (2) Effective control of traffic using planned direction, including measures for special events and adverse road or weather conditions. (3) Point control at congested locations by law enforcement personnel or designated traffic directors or wardens, including trained school-crossing guards. (4) Use of traffic control signs and devices. (5) Efficient use of available parking facilities. (6) Efficient use of mass transportation. (c) Traffic control studies will provide factual data on existing roads, traffic density and flow patterns, and points of congestion. The installation law enforcement officer and traffic engineer usually conduct coordinated traffic control studies to obtain the data. Accurate data will help determine major and minor routes, location of traffic control devices, and conditions requiring engineering or enforcement services. (d) The (Military) Surface Deployment and Distribution Command Transportation Engineering Agency (SDDCTEA) will help installation commanders solve complex highway traffic engineering problems. SDDCTEA traffic engineering services include-- (1) Traffic studies of limited areas and situations. (2) Complete studies of traffic operations of entire installations. (This can include long-range planning for future development of installation roads, public highways, and related facilities.) (3) Assistance in complying with established traffic engineering standards. (e) Installation commanders should submit requests for traffic engineering services in accordance with applicable service or agency directives. Sec. 634.26 Installation traffic codes. (a) Installation or activity commanders will establish a traffic code for operation of motor vehicles on the installation. Commanders in overseas areas will establish a traffic code, under provisions of this Part, to the extent military authority is empowered to regulate traffic on the installation under the applicable SOFA. Traffic codes will contain the rules of the road (parking violations, towing instructions, safety equipment, and other key provisions). These codes will, where possible, conform to the code of the State or host nation in which the installation is located. In addition, the development and publication of installation traffic codes will be based on the following: (1) State Highway Safety Program Standards (23 U.S.C. 402). (2) Applicable portions of the Uniform Vehicle Code and Model Traffic Ordinance published by the National Committee on Uniform Traffic Laws and Ordinances. (b) The installation traffic code will contain policy and procedures for the towing, searching, impounding, and inventorying of POVs. These provisions should be well publicized and contain the following: (1) Specific violations and conditions under which the POV will be impounded and towed. (2) Procedures to immediately notify the vehicle owner. (3) Procedures for towing and storing impounded vehicles. (4) Actions to dispose of the vehicle after lawful impoundment. (5) Violators are responsible for all costs of towing, storage and impounding of vehicles for other than evidentiary reasons. (c) Installation traffic codes will also contain the provisions discussed as follows: (Army users see AR 385-10). (1) Motorcycles and mopeds. For motorcycles and other self- propelled, open, two-wheel, three-wheel, and four-wheel vehicles powered by a motorcycle-type engine, the following traffic rules apply: (i) Headlights will be on at all times when in operation. (ii) A rear view mirror will be attached to each side of the handlebars. (iii) Approved protective helmets (DOT compliance), eye protection, sturdy over-the-ankle footwear that affords protection for the feet and ankles, and protective clothing including long-sleeved shirt or jacket, long trousers, and full-fingered gloves or mittens made from leather or other abrasion-resistant material must be worn by operators and passengers when in operation. Motorcycle jackets and pants constructed of abrasion-resistant materials such as leather, Kevlar[supreg], or Cordura[supreg] and containing impact-absorbing padding are strongly encouraged. Riders are encouraged to select PPE that incorporates fluorescent colors and retro-reflective material. (2) Restraint systems. (i) Restraint systems (seat belts) will be worn by all operators and passengers of U.S. Government vehicles on or off the installation. (ii) Restraint systems will be worn by all civilian personnel (including family members, guests, and visitors) driving or riding in a POV on the installation. (iii) Restraint systems will be worn by all military service members and Reserve Component members on active Federal service driving or riding in a POV whether on or off the installation. (iv) Each occupant riding in a passenger motor vehicle who is under eight years of age, weighs less than 65 pounds and is less than four feet, nine inches in height must be secured in an age-appropriate child restraint. (v) Restraint systems are required only in vehicles manufactured after model year 1966. (3) Driver Distractions. Vehicle operators on a DoD installation and operators of Government owned vehicles, as well as Federal employees (including service members) operating a POV on official government business or using electronic equipment provided by the Government while driving, will not use a personal wireless communication device, including for text messaging or any other form of electronic data retrieval or electronic data communication, unless the vehicle is safely parked or unless they are using a hands-free device. The wearing of any other portable headphones, earphones, or other listening devices (except for hands-free use of cellular phones) while operating a motor vehicle is prohibited. Use of those devices impairs driving and masks or prevents recognition of emergency signals, alarms, announcements, the approach of vehicles, and human speech. The DOD component safety guidance should note the potential for driver distractions such as eating and drinking, operating radios, CD players, global positioning equipment, and so on. Whenever possible this should only be done when the vehicle is safely parked. (d) Only administrative actions (reprimand, assessment of points, loss of on-post driving privileges, or other actions) will be initiated against service members for off-post violations of the installation traffic code. (e) In States where traffic law violations are State criminal offenses, such laws are made applicable under the provisions of 18 U.S.C. 13 to military installations having concurrent or exclusive Federal jurisdiction. (f) In those States where violations of traffic law are not considered criminal offenses and cannot be assimilated under 18 U.S.C., DODD 5525.4, enclosure 1 expressly adopts the vehicular and pedestrian traffic laws of [[Page 79001]] such States and makes these laws applicable to military installations having concurrent or exclusive Federal jurisdiction. It also delegates authority to installation commanders to establish additional vehicular and pedestrian traffic rules and regulations for their installations. Persons found guilty of violating the vehicular and pedestrian traffic laws made applicable on the installation under provisions of that directive are subject to a fine as determined by the local magistrate or imprisonment for not more than 30 days, or both, for each violation. In those States where traffic laws cannot be assimilated, an extract copy of this paragraph (f) and a copy of the delegation memorandum in DODD 5525.4, enclosure 1, will be posted in a prominent place accessible to persons assigned, living, or working on the installation. (g) In those States where violations of traffic laws cannot be assimilated because the Federal Government's jurisdictional authority on the installation or parts of the installation is only proprietary, neither 18 U.S.C. 13 nor the delegation memorandum in DoDD 5525.4, enclosure 1, will permit enforcement of the State's traffic laws in Federal courts. Law enforcement authorities on those military installations must rely on either administrative sanctions related to the installation driving privilege or enforcement of traffic laws by State law enforcement authorities. Sec. 634.27 Traffic law enforcement principles. (a) Traffic law enforcement should motivate drivers to operate vehicles safely within traffic laws and regulations and maintain an effective and efficient flow of traffic. Effective enforcement should emphasize voluntary compliance by drivers and can be achieved by the following actions: (1) Publishing a realistic traffic code well known by all personnel. (2) Adopting standard signs, markings, and signals in accordance with NHSPS and the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices for Streets and Highways. (3) Ensuring enforcement personnel establish courteous, personal contact with drivers and act promptly when driving behavior is improper or a defective vehicle is observed in operation. (4) Maintaining an aggressive program to detect and apprehend persons who drive while privileges are suspended or revoked. (5) Using sound discretion and judgment in deciding when to apprehend, issue citations, or warn the offender. (b) Selective enforcement will be used when practical. Selective enforcement deters traffic violations and reduces accidents by the presence or suggested presence of law enforcement personnel at places where violations, congestion, or accidents frequently occur. Selective enforcement applies proper enforcement measures to traffic congestion and focuses on selected time periods, conditions, and violations that cause accidents. Law enforcement personnel use selective enforcement because that practice is the most effective use of resources. (c) Enforcement activities against intoxicated driving will include-- (1) Detecting, apprehending, and testing persons suspected of driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. (2) Training law enforcement personnel in special enforcement techniques. (3) Enforcing blood-alcohol concentration standards. (See Sec. 634.35). (4) Denying installation driving privileges to persons whose use of alcohol or other drugs prevents safe operation of a motor vehicle. (d) Installation officials will formally evaluate traffic enforcement on a regular basis. That evaluation will examine procedures to determine if the following elements of the program are effective in reducing traffic accidents and deaths: (1) Selective enforcement measures; (2) Suspension and revocation actions; and (3) Chemical breath-testing programs. Sec. 635.28 Speed-measuring devices. Speed-measuring devices will be used in traffic control studies and enforcement programs. Signs may be posted to indicate speed-measuring devices are being used. (a) Equipment purchases. Installations will ensure operators attend an appropriate training program for the equipment in use. (b) Training and certification standards. (1) The commander of each installation using traffic radar will ensure that personnel selected as operators of such devices meet training and certification requirements prescribed by the State (or SOFA) in which the installation is located. Specific information on course dates, costs, and prerequisites for attending may be obtained by contacting the State agency responsible for police traffic radar training. (2) Installation commanders located in States or overseas areas where no formal training program exists, or where the military personnel are unable or ineligible to participate in police traffic radar training programs, may implement their own training program or use a selected civilian institution or manufacturer's course. (3) The objective of the civilian or manufacturer-sponsored course is to improve the effectiveness of speed enforcement through the proper and efficient use of speed-measurement radar. On successful completion, the course graduate must be able to-- (i) Describe the association between excessive speed and accidents, deaths, and injuries, and describe the traffic safety benefits of effective speed control. (ii) Describe the basic principles of radar speed measurement. (iii) Identify and describe the Service's policy and procedures affecting radar speed measurement and speed enforcement. (iv) Identify the specific radar instrument used and describe the instrument's major components and functions. (v) Demonstrate basic skills in checking calibration and operating the specific radar instrument(s). (vi) Demonstrate basic skills in preparing and presenting records and courtroom testimony relating to radar speed measurement and enforcement. (c) Recertification. Recertification of operators will occur every three years, or as prescribed by State law. Sec. 634.29 Traffic accident investigation. Installation law enforcement personnel must make detailed investigations of accidents described in this section: (a) Accidents involving Government vehicles or Government property on the installation involving a fatality, personal injury, or estimated property damage in the amount established by separate Service/DLA policy. (Minimum damage limits are: Army, $1,000; Air Force, as specified by the installation commander; Navy and Marine Corps, $500.) The installation motor pool will provide current estimates of the cost of repairs. Investigations of off-installation accidents involving Government vehicles will be made in cooperation with the civilian law enforcement agency. (b) POV accidents on the installation involving a fatality, personal injury, or when a POV is inoperable as a result of an accident. (c) Any accident prescribed within a SOFA agreement. [[Page 79002]] Sec. 634.30 Traffic accident investigation reports. (a) Accidents requiring immediate reports. The driver or owner of any vehicle involved in an accident, as described in Sec. 634.29, on the installation, must immediately notify the installation law enforcement office. The operator of any Government vehicle involved in a similar accident off the installation must immediately notify the local civilian law enforcement agency having jurisdiction, as well as law enforcement personnel of the nearest military installation. (b) Investigation records. Installation law enforcement officials will record traffic accident investigations on Service/DLA forms. Information will be released according to Service/DLA policy, the Privacy Act, and the Freedom of Information Act. (c) Army law enforcement officers. These officers provide the Department of the Army local Safety Office copies of traffic accident investigation reports pertaining to accidents investigated by military police that resulted in a fatality, personal injury, or estimated damage to Government vehicles or property in excess of $1,000. (d) POV accidents not addressed in Sec. 634.29. Guidance for reporting these cases is provided as follows: (1) Drivers or owners of POVs will be required to submit a written report to the installation law enforcement office within 24 hours of an accident in the following cases, with all information listed in paragraph (d)(3) of this section: (i) The accident occurs on the installation. (ii) The accident involves no personal injury. (iii) The accident involves only minor damage to the POV and the vehicle can be safely and normally driven from the scene under its own power. (2) Information in the written report cannot be used in criminal proceedings against the person submitting it unless it was originally categorized a hit and run and the violator is the person submitting the report. Rights advisement will be given prior to any criminal traffic statements provided by violators. Within the United States, the installation law enforcement official may require such reporting on Service forms or forms of the State jurisdiction. (3) Reports required in paragraph (d)(1) of this section by the Army will include the following about the accident: (i) Location, date, and time. (ii) Identification of all drivers, pedestrians, and passengers involved. (iii) Identification of vehicles involved. (iv) Speed and direction of travel of each vehicle involved, including a sketch of the collision and roadway with street names and north arrow. (v) Property damage involved. (vi) Environmental conditions at the time of the incident (weather, visibility, road surface condition, and other factors). (vii) A narrative description of the events and circumstances concerning the accident. Sec. 634.31 Use of traffic accident investigation report data. (a) Data derived from traffic accident investigation reports and from vehicle owner accident reports will be analyzed to determine probable causes of accidents. When frequent accidents occur at a location, the conditions at the location and the types of accidents (collision diagram) will be examined. (b) Law enforcement personnel and others who prepare traffic accident investigation reports will document on DA Form 3975, Military Police Report or other Service equivalent, whether or not seat restraint devices were being used at the time of the accident. (c) When accidents warrant, an installation commander may establish a traffic accident review board. The board will consist of law enforcement, engineer, safety, medical, and legal personnel. The board will determine principal factors leading to the accident and recommend measures to reduce the number and severity of accidents on and off the installation. (The Air Force will use Traffic Safety Coordinating Groups. The Navy will use Traffic Safety Councils per OPNAVINST 5100.12 Series). (d) Data will be shared with the installation legal, engineer, safety, and transportation officers. The data will be used to inform and educate drivers and to conduct traffic engineering studies. (e) Army traffic accident investigation reports will be provided to Army Centralized Accident Investigation of Ground Accidents (CAIG) boards on request. The CAIG boards are under the control of the Commander, U.S. Army Safety Center, Fort Rucker, AL 36362-5363. These boards investigate Class A, on-duty, non-POV accidents and other selected accidents Army-wide (See AR 385-40). Local commanders provide additional board members as required to complete a timely and accurate investigation. Normally, additional board members are senior equipment operators, maintenance officers, and medical officers. However, specific qualifications of the additional board members may be dictated by the nature of the accident. (f) The CAIG program is not intended to interfere with, impede, or delay law enforcement agencies in the execution of regulatory responsibilities that apply to the investigation of accidents for a determination of criminal intent or criminal acts. Criminal investigations have priority. (g) Army law enforcement agencies will maintain close liaison and cooperation with CAIG boards. Such cooperation, particularly with respect to interviews of victims and witnesses and in collection and preservation of physical evidence, should support both the CAIG and law enforcement collateral investigations. Sec. 634.32 Parking. (a) The most efficient use of existing on- and off-street parking space should be stressed on a non-reserved (first-come, first-served) basis. (b) Reserved parking facilities should be designated as parking by permit or numerically by category of eligible parkers. Designation of parking spaces by name, grade, rank, or title should be avoided. (c) Illegal parking contributes to congestion and slows traffic flow on an installation. Strong enforcement of parking restrictions results in better use of available parking facilities and eliminates conditions causing traffic accidents. (d) The ``Denver boot'' device is authorized for use as a technique to assist in the enforcement of parking violations where immobilization of the POV is necessary for safety. Under no circumstances should the device be used to punish or ``teach a lesson'' to violators. Booting should not be used if other reasonably effective but less restrictive means of enforcement (such as warnings, ticketing, reprimands, revocations, or suspensions of on-post driving privileges) are available. Procedures for booting must be developed as follows: (1) Local standing operating procedures (SOPs) must be developed to control the discretion of enforcers and limit booting to specific offenses. SOPs should focus on specific reasons for booting, such as immobilization of unsafe, uninspected, or unregistered vehicles or compelling the presence of repeat offenders. All parking violations must be clearly outlined in the installation traffic code. (2) Drivers should be placed on notice that particular violations or multiple violations may result in booting. Also, drivers must be provided with a prompt hearing and an opportunity to obtain the release of their property. [[Page 79003]] (3) To limit liability, drivers must be warned when a boot is attached to their vehicle and instructed how to have the boot removed without damaging the vehicle. Sec. 634.33 Traffic violation reports. (a) Most traffic violations occurring on DOD installations (within the UNITED STATES or its territories) should be referred to the proper U.S. Magistrate. (Army, see AR 190-45; DLA, see DLA One Book Process Chapter, Criminal Offenses and U.S. Federal Court Procedures; and Air Force, see AFI 51-905). However, violations are not referred when-- (1) The operator is driving a Government vehicle at the time of the violation. (2) A Federal Magistrate is either not available or lacks jurisdiction to hear the matter because the violation occurred in an area where the Federal Government has only proprietary legislative jurisdiction. (3) Mission requirements make referral of offenders impractical. (4) A U.S. Magistrate is available but the accused refuses to consent to the jurisdiction of the court and the U.S. Attorney refuses to process the case before a U.S. District Court. For the Navy, DUI and driving under the influence of drugs cases will be referred to the Federal Magistrate. (b) Installation commanders will establish administrative procedures for processing traffic violations. (1) All traffic violators on military installations will be issued either a DD Form 1408 (Armed Forces Traffic Ticket) or a Central Violations Bureau (CVB) United States District Court Violation Notice (DCVN), as appropriate. Unless specified otherwise by separate Service/ DLA policy, only on-duty law enforcement personnel (including game wardens) designated by the installation law enforcement officer may issue these forms. Air Force individuals certified under the Parking Traffic Warden Program may issue DD Form 1408 in areas under their control. (2) A copy of all reports on military personnel and DOD civilian employees apprehended for intoxicated driving will be forwarded to the installation alcohol and drug abuse facility. (c) Installation commanders will establish procedures used for disposing of traffic violation cases through administrative or judicial action consistent with the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) and Federal law. (d) The CVB will be used to refer violations of State traffic laws made applicable to the installation (Assimilative Crimes Act (18 U.S.C. 13) and the delegation memorandum in DoDD 5525.4, enclosure 1, and other violations of Federal law) to the U.S. Magistrate. (Army users, see AR 190-45.) (1) A copy of DD Form 1805 and any traffic violation reports on military personnel and DOD civilian employees will be forwarded to the commander or supervisor of the violator. DA form 3975 may be use to forward the report. (2) Detailed instructions for properly completing the CVB are contained in separate Service policy directives. (3) The assimilation of State traffic laws as Federal offenses should be identified by a specific State code reference in the CODE SECTION block of the CVB (or in a complaint filed with the U.S. Magistrate). (4) The Statement of Probable Cause on the CVB will be used according to local staff judge advocate and U.S. Magistrate court policy. The Statement of Probable Cause is required by the Federal misdemeanor rules to support the issuance of a summons or arrest warrant. (5) For cases referred to U.S. Magistrates, normal distribution of the CVB will be as follows: (i) The installation law enforcement official will forward copy 1 (white) and copy 2 (yellow) to the U.S. District Court (Central Violation Bureau). (ii) The installation law enforcement office will file copy 3 (pink). (iii) Law enforcement personnel will provide copy 4 (envelope) to the violator. (e) When DD Form 1408 is used, one copy (including written warnings) will be forwarded through command channels to the service member's commander, to the commander of the military family member's sponsor, or to the civilian's supervisor or employer as the installation commander may establish. (1) Previous traffic violations committed by the offender and points assessed may be shown. (2) For violations that require a report of action taken, the DD Form 1408 will be returned to the office of record through the reviewing authority as the installation commander may establish. (3) When the report is received by the office of record, that office will enter the action on the violator's driving record. Sec. 634.34 Training of law enforcement personnel. (a) As a minimum, installation law enforcement personnel will be trained to do the following: (1) Recognize signs of alcohol and other drug impairment in persons operating motor vehicles. (2) Prepare DD Form 1920 (Alcohol Influence Report). (3) Perform the three field tests of the improved sobriety testing techniques (Sec. 634.36[b]). (4) Determine when a person appears intoxicated but is actually physically or mentally ill and requires prompt medical attention. (5) Understand the operation of breath-testing devices. (b) Each installation using breath-testing devices will ensure that operators of these devices-- (1) Are chosen for integrity, maturity, and sound judgment. (2) Meet certification requirements of the State where the installation is located. (c) Installations located in States or overseas areas having a formal breath-testing and certification program should ensure operators attend that training. (d) Installations located in States or overseas areas with no formal training program will train personnel at courses offered by selected civilian institutions or manufacturers of the equipment. (e) Operators must maintain proficiency through refresher training every 18 months or as required by the State. Sec. 634.35 Blood alcohol concentration standards. (a) Administrative revocation of driving privileges and other enforcement measures will be applied uniformly to offenders driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. When a person is tested under the implied consent provisions of Sec. 634.8, the results of the test will be evaluated as follows: (1) If the percentage is 0.05 but less than 0.08, presume the person may be impaired. This standard may be considered with other competent evidence in determining whether the person was under the influence of alcohol. (2) If the percentage is 0.08 or more, or if tests reflect the presence of illegal drugs, the person was driving while intoxicated. (b) Percentages in paragraph (a) of this section are percent of weight by volume of alcohol in the blood based on grams of alcohol per 100 milliliters of blood. These presumptions will be considered with other evidence in determining intoxication. Sec. 634.36 Chemical testing policies and procedures. (a) Validity of chemical testing. Results of chemical testing are valid under this part only under the following circumstances: (1) Blood, urine, or other bodily substances are tested using generally [[Page 79004]] accepted scientific and medical methods and standards. (2) Breath tests are administered by qualified personnel (Sec. 634.33). (3) An evidential breath-testing device approved by the State or host nation is used. For Army, Air Force, and Marine Corps, the device must also be listed on the NHTSA ``Conforming Products List of Evidential Breath Measurement Devices'' (77 FR 35747, and subsequent updates that NHTSA may publish periodically in the Federal Register). The most current NHTSA list may be found by searching the Federal Register Web site (https://www.federalregister.gov/articles/search?conditions%5Bterm%5D=%22Conforming+Products+List+of+Evidential+Breath+Measurement+Devices%22). (4) Procedures established by the State or host nation or as prescribed in paragraph (b) of this section are followed. (b) Breath-testing device operational procedures. If the State or host nation has not established procedures for use of breath-testing devices, the following procedures will apply: (1) Screening breath-testing devices will be used-- (i) During the initial traffic stop as a field sobriety testing technique, along with other field sobriety testing techniques, to determine if further testing is needed on an evidential breath-testing device. (ii) According to manufacture operating instructions. (For Army, Air Force, and Marine Corps, the screening breath-testing device must also be listed on the NHTSA ``Conforming Products List of Evidential Breath Measurement Devices'' (see paragraph (a)(3) of this section). (2) Evidential breath-testing devices will be used as follows: (i) Observe the person to be tested for at least 15 minutes before collecting the breath specimen. During this time, the person must not drink alcoholic beverages or other fluids, eat, smoke, chew tobacco/ gum, or ingest any substance. (ii) Verify calibration and proper operation of the instrument by using a control sample immediately before the test. (iii) Comply with operational procedures in the manufacturer's current instruction manual. (iv) Perform preventive maintenance as required by the instruction manual. (c) Chemical tests of personnel involved in fatal accidents. (1) Installation medical authorities will immediately notify the installation law enforcement officer of-- (i) The death of any person involved in a motor vehicle accident. (ii) The circumstances surrounding such an accident, based on information available at the time of admission or receipt of the body of the victim. (2) Medical authorities will examine the bodies of those persons killed in a motor vehicle accident to include drivers, passengers, and pedestrians subject to military jurisdiction. They will also examine the bodies of family members, who are 16 years of age or older, if the sponsors give their consent. Tests for the presence and concentration of alcohol or other drugs in the person's blood, bodily fluids, or tissues will be made as soon as possible and where practical within eight hours of death. The test results will be included in the medical reports. (3) As provided by law and medical conditions permitting, a blood or breath sample will be obtained from any surviving operator whose vehicle is involved in a fatal accident. Sec. 634.37 Detection, apprehension, and testing of intoxicated drivers. (a) Law enforcement personnel usually detect drivers under the influence of alcohol or other drugs by observing unusual or abnormal driving behavior. Drivers showing such behavior will be stopped immediately. The cause of the unusual driving behavior will be determined, and proper enforcement action will be taken. (b) When a law enforcement officer reasonably concludes that the individual driving or in control of the vehicle is impaired, field sobriety tests should be conducted on the individual. The DD Form 1920 may be used by law enforcement agencies in examining, interpreting, and recording results of such tests. Law enforcement personnel should use the Standardized Field Sobriety Test battery as sanctioned by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (consisting of three tests: The horizontal gaze nystagmus test, Walk and Turn, and One-Leg Stand) and screening breath-testing devices to conduct field sobriety tests. Sec. 634.38 Voluntary breath and bodily fluid testing based on implied consent. (a) Implied consent policy is explained in Sec. 634.8. (b) Tests may be administered only if the following conditions are met: (1) The person was lawfully stopped while driving, operating, or in actual physical control of a motor vehicle on the installation. (2) Reasonable suspicion exists to believe that the person was driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. (3) A request was made to the person to consent to the tests combined with a warning that failure to voluntarily submit to or complete a chemical test of bodily fluids or breath will result in the revocation of driving privileges. (c) As stated in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this section, the law enforcement official relying on implied consent will warn the person that driving privileges will be revoked if the person fails to voluntarily submit to or complete a requested chemical test. The person does not have the right to have an attorney present before stating whether he or she will submit to a test, or during the actual test. Installation commanders will prescribe the type or types of chemical tests to be used. Testing will follow policies and procedures in Sec. 634.35. The results of chemical tests conducted under the implied consent provisions of this part may be used as evidence in courts- martial, non-judicial proceedings under Article 15 of the UCMJ, administrative actions, and civilian courts. (d) Special rules exist for persons who have hemophilia, other blood-clotting disorders, or any medical or surgical disorder being treated with an anticoagulant. These persons-- (1) May refuse a blood extraction test without penalty. (2) Will not be administered a blood extraction test to determine alcohol or other drug concentration or presence under this part. (3) May be given breath or urine tests, or both. (e) If a person suspected of intoxicated driving refuses to submit to a chemical test, a test will not be administered except as specified in Sec. 634.39. Sec. 634.39 Involuntary extraction of bodily fluids in traffic cases. (a) General. The procedures outlined in this section pertain only to the investigation of individuals stopped, apprehended, or cited on a military installation for any offense related to driving a motor vehicle and for whom probable cause exists to believe that such individual is intoxicated. Extractions of body fluids in furtherance of other kinds of investigations are governed by the Manual for Courts- Martial, United States, Military Rule of Evidence 315 (2002) (MRE 315), and regulatory rules concerning requesting and granting authorizations for searches. (1) Air Force policy on nonconsensual extraction of blood samples is addressed in AFI 44-102. (2) Army and Marine Corps personnel should not undertake the nonconsensual extraction of body fluids [[Page 79005]] for reasons other than a valid medical purpose without first obtaining the advice and concurrence of the installation staff judge advocate or his or her designee. (3) DLA policy on nonconsensual taking of blood samples is contained in the DLA One Book Process Chapter, Search and Seizure. (b) Procedures. Involuntary bodily fluid extraction must be based on valid search and seizure authorization. An individual subject to the UCMJ who does not consent to chemical testing, as described in Sec. 634.37, may nonetheless be subjected to an involuntary extraction of bodily fluids, including blood and urine, only in accordance with the following procedures: (1) An individual subject to the UCMJ who was driving a motor vehicle and suspected of being under the influence of an intoxicant may be subjected to a nonconsensual bodily fluid extraction to test for the presence of intoxicants only when there is a probable cause to believe that such an individual was driving or in control of a vehicle while under the influence of an intoxicant. (i) A search authorization by an appropriate commander or military magistrate obtained pursuant to the Manual for Courts-Martial, United States, Military Rule of Evidence 315 (2002) is required prior to such nonconsensual extraction. (ii) A search authorization is not required under such circumstances when there is a clear indication that evidence of intoxication will be found and there is reason to believe that the delay necessary to obtain a search authorization would result in the loss or destruction of the evidence sought. (iii) Because warrantless searches are subject to close scrutiny by the courts, obtaining an authorization is highly preferable. Warrantless searches generally should be conducted only after coordination with the servicing staff judge advocate or legal officer, and attempts to obtain authorization from an appropriate official prove unsuccessful due to the unavailability of a commander or military magistrate. (2) If authorization from the military magistrate or commander proves unsuccessful due to the unavailability of such officials, the commander of a medical facility is empowered by the Manual for Courts- Martial, United States, Military Rule of Evidence 315 (2002), to authorize such extraction from an individual located in the facility at the time the authorization is sought. (i) Before authorizing the involuntary extraction, the commander of the medical facility should, if circumstances permit, coordinate with the servicing staff judge advocate or legal officer. (ii) The medical facility commander authorizing the extraction under the Manual for Courts-Martial, United States, Military Rule of Evidence 315 (2002) need not be on duty as the attending physician at the facility where the extraction is to be performed and the actual extraction may be accomplished by other qualified medical personnel. (iii) The authorizing official may consider his or her own observations of the individual in determining probable cause. (c) Role of medical personnel. Authorization for the nonconsensual extraction of blood samples for evidentiary purposes by qualified medical personnel is independent of, and not limited by, provisions defining medical care, such as the provision for nonconsensual medical care pursuant to AR 600-20, section IV. Extraction of blood will be accomplished by qualified medical personnel. (See the Manual for Courts-Martial, United States, Military Rule of Evidence 312[g] [2002]). (1) In performing this duty, medical personnel are expected to use only that amount of force that is reasonable and necessary to administer the extraction. (2) Any force necessary to overcome an individual's resistance to the extraction normally will be provided by law enforcement personnel or by personnel acting under orders from the member's unit commander. (3) Life endangering force will not be used in an attempt to effect nonconsensual extractions. (4) All law enforcement and medical personnel will keep in mind the possibility that the individual may require medical attention for possible disease or injury. (d) Nonconsensual extractions of blood will be done in a manner that will not interfere with or delay proper medical attention. Medical personnel will determine the priority to be given involuntary blood extractions when other medical treatment is required. (e) Use of Army medical treatment facilities and personnel for blood alcohol testing has no relevance to whether or not the suspect is eligible for military medical treatment. The medical effort in such instances is in support of a valid military mission (law enforcement), not related to providing medical treatment to an individual. Sec. 634.40 Testing at the request of the apprehended person. (a) A person subject to tests under Sec. 634.8 may request that an additional test be done privately. The person may choose a doctor, qualified technician, chemist, registered nurse, or other qualified person to do the test. The person must pay the cost of the test. The test must be a chemical test approved by the State or host nation in an overseas command. (b) If the tests are requested, the apprehended person is responsible for making all arrangements. (c) All tests will be completed without unnecessary delay, within two hours of detention if possible. (d) If the suspect fails to or is unable to obtain any additional tests, the results of the tests that were done at the direction of a law enforcement official remain valid and may still be used to support actions under separate Service regulations, UCMJ, and the U.S. Magistrate Court. Sec. 634.41 General off installation traffic activities. In areas not under military control, civil authorities enforce traffic laws. Law enforcement authorities will establish a system to exchange information with civil authorities. Army and Air Force installation law enforcement authorities will establish a system to exchange information with civil authorities to enhance the chain of command's visibility of a soldier's and airman's off post traffic violations. These agreements will provide for the assessment of traffic points based on reports from state licensing authorities involving Army military personnel. The provisions of Subpart E of this part and the VRS automated system provide for the collection of off post traffic incident reports and data. As provided in AR 190-45, civilian law enforcement agencies are considered routine users of Army law enforcement data and will be granted access to data when available from Army law enforcement systems of records. Off-installation traffic activities in overseas areas are governed by formal agreements with the host nation government. Procedures should be established to process reports received from civil authorities on serious traffic violations, accidents, and intoxicated driving incidents involving persons subject to this part. The exchange of information is limited to Army and Air Force military personnel. Provost marshals will not collect and use data concerning civilian employees, family members, and contract personnel except as allowed by state and Federal laws. Sec. 634.42 Compliance with State laws. (a) Installation commanders will inform service members, contractors and DOD civilian employees to comply with State and local traffic laws when operating government motor vehicles. [[Page 79006]] (b) Commanders will coordinate with the proper civil law enforcement agency before moving Government vehicles that exceed legal limits or regulations or that may subject highway users to unusual hazards. (See AR 55-162/OPNAVINST 4600.11D/AFJI 24-216/MCO 4643.5C). (c) Installation commanders will maintain liaison with civil enforcement agencies and encourage the following: (1) Release of a Government vehicle operator to military authorities unless one of the following conditions exists. (i) The offense warrants detention. (ii) The person's condition is such that further operation of a motor vehicle could result in injury to the person or others. (2) Prompt notice to military authorities when military personnel or drivers of Government motor vehicles have-- (i) Committed serious violations of civil traffic laws. (ii) Been involved in traffic accidents. (3) Prompt notice of actions by a State or host nation to suspend, revoke, or restrict the State or host nation driver's license (vehicle operation privilege) of persons who-- (i) Operate Government motor vehicles. (ii) Regularly operate a POV on the installation. (See also Sec. 634.16). Sec. 634.43 Civil-military cooperative programs. (a) State-Armed Forces Traffic Workshop Program. This program is an organized effort to coordinate military and civil traffic safety activities throughout a State or area. Installation commanders will cooperate with State and local officials in this program and provide proper support and participation. (b) Community-Installation Traffic Workshop Program. Installation commanders should establish a local workshop program to coordinate the installation traffic efforts with those of local communities. Sound and practical traffic planning depends on a balanced program of traffic enforcement, engineering, and education. Civilian and military legal and law enforcement officers, traffic engineers, safety officials, and public affairs officers should take part. Subpart E--Driving Records and the Traffic Point System Sec. 634.44 Driving records. Army installations will use DA Form 3626 (Vehicle Registration/ Driver Record) to record vehicle traffic accidents, moving violations, suspension or revocation actions, and traffic point assessments involving military and DOD civilian personnel, their family members, and other personnel operating motor vehicles on a military installation. Other Services and DLA will use their service equivalent form for this purpose. Table 1 to part 634 prescribes mandatory minimum or maximum suspension or revocation periods. Traffic points are not assessed for suspension or revocation actions. Table 1 to Part 634--Suspension/Revocation of Driving Privileges (See Notes 1 and 2). Assessment 1: Two-year revocation is mandatory on determination of facts by installation commander. (For Army, a five-year revocation is mandatory.) Violation: Driving while driver's license or installation driving privileges are under suspension or revocation. Assessment 2: One-year revocation is mandatory on determination of facts by installation commander. Violation: Refusal to submit to or failure to complete chemical tests (implied consent). Assessment 3: One-year revocation is mandatory on conviction. Violation: A. Manslaughter (or negligent homicide by vehicle) resulting from the operation of a motor vehicle. B. Driving or being in actual physical control of a motor vehicle while under the influence of intoxicating liquor (0.08% or greater on DOD installations; violation of civil law off post). C. Driving a motor vehicle while under the influence of any narcotic, or while under the influence of any other drug (including alcohol) to the degree rendered incapable of safe vehicle operation. D. Use of a motor vehicle in the commission of a felony. Fleeing the scene of an accident involving death or personal injury, i.e.: hit and run. E. Perjury or making a false statement or affidavit under oath to responsible officials relating to the ownership or operation of motor vehicles. F. Unauthorized use of a motor vehicle belonging to another, when the act does not amount to a felony. Assessment 4: Suspension for a period of six months or less or revocation for a period not to exceed one year is discretionary. Violation: A. Mental or physical impairment (not including alcohol or other drug use) to the degree rendered incompetent to drive. B. Commission of an offense in another State which, if committed on the installation, would be grounds for suspension or revocation. C. Permitting an unlawful or fraudulent use of an official driver's license. D. Conviction of fleeing, or attempting to elude, a police officer. E. Conviction of racing on the highway. Assessment 5: Loss of OF 46 for minimum of six months is discretionary. Violation: Receiving a second one-year suspension or revocation of driving privileges within five years. Notes 1. When imposing a suspension or revocation because of an off- installation offense, the effective date should be the same as the date of civil conviction, or the date that State or host-nation driving privileges are suspended or revoked. This effective date can be retroactive. 2. No points are assessed for revocation or suspension actions. Except for implied consent violations, revocations must be based on a conviction by a civilian court or courts-martial, non-judicial punishment under Article 15, UCMJ, or a separate hearing as addressed in this part. If revocation for implied consent is combined with another revocation, such as one year for intoxicated driving, revocations may run consecutively (total of 24 months) or concurrently (total of 12 months). The installation commander's policy should be applied systematically and not on a case-by-case basis. Sec. 634.45 The traffic point system. The traffic point system provides a uniform administrative device to impartially judge driving performance of Service and DLA personnel. This system is not a disciplinary measure or a substitute for punitive action. Further, this system is not intended to interfere in any way with the reasonable exercise of an installation commander's prerogative to issue, suspend, revoke, deny, or reinstate installation driving privileges. Sec. 634.46 Point system application. (a) The Services and DLA are required to use the point system and procedures prescribed in this section without change. (b) The point system in of this part applies to all operators of U.S. Government motor vehicles, on or off Federal property. The system also applies to violators reported to installation officials in accordance with Sec. 634.46. (c) Points will be assessed when the person is found to have committed a violation and the finding is by either the unit commander, civilian supervisor, a [[Page 79007]] military or civilian court (including a U.S. Magistrate), or by payment of fine, forfeiture of pay or allowances, or posted bond, or collateral. Table 2 to Part 634--Point Assessment for Moving Traffic Violations (See Note 1). A. Violation: Reckless driving (willful and wanton disregard for the safety of persons or property).

Violation: Operating an unsafe vehicle. (See Note 2). Points assessed: 2 Z. Violation: Driver involved in accident is deemed responsible (only added to points assessed for specific offenses). Points assessed: 1 Notes: 1. When two or more violations are committed on a single occasion, points may be assessed for each individual violation. 2. This measure should be used for other than minor vehicle safety defects or when a driver or registrant fails to correct a minor defect (for example, a burned out headlight not replaced within the grace period on a warning ticket). Sec. 634.47 Point system procedures. (a) Reports of moving traffic violations recorded on DD Form 1408 or the CVB will serve as a basis for determining point assessment. For DD Form 1408, return endorsements will be required from commanders or supervisors. (b) On receipt of DD Form 1408 or other military law enforcement report of a moving violation, the unit commander, designated supervisor, or person otherwise designated by the installation commander will conduct an inquiry. The commander will take or recommend proper disciplinary or administrative action. If a case involves judicial or non-judicial actions, the final report of action taken will not be forwarded until final adjudication. (c) On receipt of the report of action taken (including action by a U.S. Magistrate Court on the CVB), the installation law enforcement officer will assess the number of points appropriate for the offense, and record the traffic points or the suspension or revocation of driving privileges on the person's driving record. Except as specified otherwise in this part and other Service/DLA regulations, points will not be assessed or driving privileges suspended or revoked when the report of action taken indicates that neither disciplinary nor administrative action was taken. (d) Installation commanders may require the following driver improvement measures as appropriate: (1) Advisory letter through the unit commander or supervisor to any person who has acquired six traffic points within a six-month period. (2) Counseling or driver improvement interview, by the unit commander, of any person who has acquired more than six but less than 12 traffic points within a six-month period. This counseling or interview should produce recommendations to improve driver performance. (3) Referral for medical evaluation when a driver, based on reasonable belief, appears to have mental or physical limits that have had or may have an adverse affect on driving performance. (4) Attendance at remedial driver training to improve driving performance. (5) Referral to an alcohol or drug treatment or rehabilitation facility for evaluation, counseling, or treatment. This action is required for active military personnel in all cases in which alcohol or other drugs are a contributing factor to a traffic citation, incident, or accident. (e) An individual's driving privileges may be suspended or revoked as provided by this part regardless of whether these improvement measures are accomplished. (f) Persons whose driving privileges are suspended or revoked (for one violation or an accumulation of 12 traffic points within 12 consecutive months, or 18 traffic points within 24 consecutive months) will be notified in writing through official channels (Sec. 634.11). Except for the mandatory minimum or maximum suspension or revocation periods prescribed above, the installation commander will establish periods of suspension or revocation. Any revocation based on traffic points must be no less than six months. A [[Page 79008]] longer period may be imposed on the basis of a person's overall driving record considering the frequency, flagrancy, severity of moving violations, and the response to previous driver improvement measures. In all cases, military members must successfully complete a prescribed course in remedial driver training before driving privileges are reinstated. (g) Points assessed against a person will remain in effect for point accumulation purposes for 24 consecutive months. The review of driver records to delete traffic points should be done routinely during records update while recording new offenses and forwarding records to new duty stations. Completion of a revocation based on points requires removal from the driver record of all points assessed before the revocation. (h) Removal of points does not authorize removal of driving record entries for moving violations, chargeable accidents, suspensions, or revocations. Record entries will remain posted on individual driving records for the following periods of time. (1) Chargeable nonfatal traffic accidents or moving violations-3 years. (2) Non-mandatory suspensions or revocations-5 years. (3) Mandatory revocations-7 years. Sec. 634.48 Disposition of driving records. Procedures will be established to ensure prompt notice to the installation law enforcement office when a person assigned to or employed on the installation is being transferred to another installation, being released from military service, or ending employment. (a) If persons being transferred to a new installation have valid points or other entries on the driving records, the law enforcement offices will forward the records to the law enforcement office of the gaining installation. Gaining installation law enforcement offices must coordinate with applicable commanders and continue any existing suspension or revocation based on intoxicated driving or accumulation of traffic points. Traffic points for persons being transferred will continue to accumulate as specified in Sec. 634.46(g). (b) Driving records of military personnel being discharged or released from active duty will be retained on file for two years and then destroyed. In cases of immediate reenlistment, change of officer component or military or civilian retirement when vehicle registration is continued, the record will remain active. (c) Driving records of civilian personnel terminating employment will be retained on file for two years and then destroyed. (d) Driving records of military family members containing point assessments or other entries will be forwarded to the sponsor's gaining installation in the same manner as for service members. At the new installation, records will be analyzed and made available temporarily to the sponsor's unit commander or supervisor for review. (e) Driving records of retirees electing to retain installation driving privileges will be retained. Points accumulated or entries on the driver record regarding suspensions, revocations, moving violations, or chargeable accidents will not be deleted from driver records except per Sec. 634.46(g) and (h). (f) Army users will comply with paragraphs (a) and (d) of this section by mailing the individual's DA Form 3626 to the gaining installation Provost Marshal/Director of Emergency Services. Subpart F--Impounding Privately Owned Vehicles Sec. 634.49 General. This Subpart provides the standards and procedures for law enforcement personnel when towing, inventorying, searching, impounding, and disposing of POVs. This policy is based on: (a) The interests of the Services and DLA in crime prevention, traffic safety, and the orderly flow of vehicle traffic movement. (b) The vehicle owner's constitutional rights to due process, freedom from unreasonable search and seizure, and freedom from deprivation of private property. Sec. 634.50 Standards for impoundment. (a) POVs should not be impounded unless the vehicles clearly interfere with ongoing operations or movement of traffic, threaten public safety or convenience, are involved in criminal activity, contain evidence of criminal activity, or are stolen or abandoned. (b) The impoundment of a POV would be inappropriate when reasonable alternatives to impoundment exist. (1) Attempts should be made to locate the owner of the POV and have the vehicle removed. (2) The vehicle may be moved a short distance to a legal parking area and temporarily secured until the owner is found. (3) Another responsible person may be allowed to drive or tow the POV with permission from the owner, operator, or person empowered to control the vehicle. In this case, the owner, operator, or person empowered to control the vehicle will be informed that law enforcement personnel are not responsible for safeguarding the POV. (c) Impounding of POVs is justified when any of the following conditions exist: (1) The POV is illegally parked-- (i) On a street or bridge, in a tunnel, or is double parked, and interferes with the orderly flow of traffic. (ii) On a sidewalk, within an intersection, on a cross-walk, on a railroad track, in a fire lane, or is blocking a driveway, so that the vehicle interferes with operations or creates a safety hazard to other roadway users or the general public. An example would be a vehicle parked within 15 feet of a fire hydrant or blocking a properly marked driveway of a fire station or aircraft-alert crew facility. (iii) When blocking an emergency exit door of any public place (installation theater, club, dining hall, hospital, and other facility). (iv) In a ``tow-away'' zone that is so marked with proper signs. (2) The POV interferes with-- (i) Street cleaning or snow removal operations and attempts to contact the owner have been unsuccessful. (ii) Emergency operations during a natural disaster or fire or must be removed from the disaster area during cleanup operations. (3) The POV has been used in a crime or contains evidence of criminal activity. (4) The owner or person in charge has been apprehended and is unable or unwilling to arrange for custody or removal. (5) The POV is mechanically defective and is a menace to others using the public roadways. (6) The POV is disabled by a traffic incident and the operator is either unavailable or physically incapable of having the vehicle towed to a place of safety for storage or safekeeping. (7) Law enforcement personnel reasonably believe the vehicle is abandoned. Sec. 634.51 Towing and storage. (a) Impounded POVs may be towed and stored by either the Services and DLA or a contracted wrecker service depending on availability of towing services and the local commander's preference. (b) The installation commander will designate an enclosed area on the installation that can be secured by lock and key for an impound lot to be used by the military or civilian wrecker service. An approved impoundment area belonging to the contracted wrecker service may also be used provided the [[Page 79009]] area assures adequate accountability and security of towed vehicles. One set of keys to the enclosed area will be maintained by the installation law enforcement officer or designated individual. (c) Temporary impoundment and towing of POVs for violations of the installation traffic code or involvement in criminal activities will be accomplished under the direct supervision of law enforcement personnel. Sec. 634.52 Procedures for impoundment. (a) Unattended POVs. (1) DD Form 2504 (Abandoned Vehicle Notice) will be conspicuously placed on POVs considered unattended. This action will be documented by an entry in the installation law enforcement desk journal or blotter. (2) The owner will be allowed three days from the date the POV is tagged to remove the vehicle before impoundment action is initiated. If the vehicle has not been removed after three days, it will be removed by the installation towing service or the contracted wrecker service. If a contracted wrecker service is used, a DD Form 2505 (Abandoned Vehicle Removal Authorization) will be completed and issued to the contractor by the installation law enforcement office. (3) After the vehicle has been removed, the installation law enforcement officer or the contractor will complete DD Form 2506 (Vehicle Impoundment Report) as a record of the actions taken. (i) An inventory listing personal property will be done to protect the owner, law enforcement personnel, the contractor, and the commander. (ii) The contents of a closed container such as a suitcase inside the vehicle need not be inventoried. Such articles should be opened only if necessary to identify the owner of the vehicle or if the container might contain explosives or otherwise present a danger to the public. Merely listing the container and sealing it with security tape will suffice. (iii) Personal property must be placed in a secure area for safekeeping. (4) DD Form 2507 (Notice of Vehicle Impoundment) will be forwarded by certified mail to the address of the last known owner of the vehicle to advise the owner of the impoundment action, and request information concerning the owner's intentions pertaining to the disposition of the vehicle. (b) Stolen POVs or vehicles involved in criminal activity. (1) When the POV is to be held for evidentiary purposes, the vehicle should remain in the custody of the applicable Service or DLA until law enforcement purposes are served. (2) Recovered stolen POVs will be released to the registered owner, unless held for evidentiary purposes, or to the law enforcement agency reporting the vehicle stolen, as appropriate. (3) A POV held on request of other authorities will be retained in the custody of the applicable Service or DLA until the vehicle can be released to such authorities. Sec. 634.53 Search incident to impoundment based on criminal activity. Search of a POV in conjunction with impoundment based on criminal activity will likely occur in one of the following general situations: (a) The owner or operator is not present. This situation could arise during traffic and crime-related impoundments and abandoned vehicle seizures. A property search related to an investigation of criminal activity should not be conducted without search authority unless the item to be seized is in plain view or is readily discernible on the outside as evidence of criminal activity. When in doubt, proper search authority should be obtained before searching. (b) The owner or operator is present. This situation can occur during either a traffic or criminal incident, or if the operator is apprehended for a crime or serious traffic violation and sufficient probable cause exists to seize the vehicle. This situation could also arise during cases of intoxicated driving or traffic accidents in which the operator is present but incapacitated or otherwise unable to make adequate arrangements to safeguard the vehicle. If danger exists to the police or public or if there is risk of loss or destruction of evidence, an investigative type search of the vehicle may be conducted without search authority. (Air Force, see AFP 125-2). Sec. 634.54 Disposition of vehicles after impoundment. (a) If a POV is impounded for evidentiary purposes, the vehicle can be held for as long as the evidentiary or law enforcement purpose exists. The vehicle must then be returned to the owner without delay unless directed otherwise by competent authority. (b) If the vehicle is unclaimed after 120 days from the date notification was mailed to the last known owner or the owner released the vehicle by properly completing DD Form 2505, the vehicle will be disposed of by one of the following procedures: (1) Release to the lien holder, if known. (2) Processed as abandoned property in accordance with DOD 4160.21- M. (i) Property may not be disposed of until diligent effort has been made to find the owner; or the heirs, next of kin, or legal representative of the owner. (ii) The diligent effort to find one of those mentioned in paragraph (a) of this section shall begin no later than seven days after the date on which the property comes into custody or control of the law enforcement agency. (iii) The period for which this effort is continued may not exceed 45 days. (iv) If the owner or those mentioned in Sec. 634.53 are determined, but not found, the property may not be disposed of until the expiration of 45 days after the date when notice, giving the time and place of the intended sale or other disposition, has been sent by certified or registered mail to that person at their last known address. (v) When diligent effort to determine those mentioned in paragraph (b)(2)(iv) of this section is unsuccessful, the property may be disposed of without delay, except that if it has a fair market value of more than $500, the law enforcement official may not dispose of the property until 45 days after the date it is received at the storage point. (c) All contracts for the disposal of abandoned vehicles must comply with 10 U.S.C. 2575. Subpart G--List of State Driver's License Agencies Sec. 634.55 List of State driver's license agencies. Notification of State Driver's License Agencies. The installation commander will notify the State driver's license agency of those personnel whose installation driving privileges are revoked for one year or more, following final adjudication of the intoxicated driving offense or for refusing to submit to a lawful blood-alcohol content test in accordance with Sec. 634.8. This notification will include the basis for the suspension and the blood alcohol level. The notification will be sent to the State in which the driver's license was issued. A current listing of State driver's license agencies can be located on the worldwide web at http://www.usa.gov/Topics/Motor-Vehicles.shtml.
