New 2006 DUI Laws from the California DMV website:
Driving Under the Influence (DUI)
Allows a repeat DUI offender to obtain a restricted driver license after 12
months of the revocation and 12 months of either an 18 or 30-month DUI program
if an ignition interlock device (IID) is installed on the vehicle.
Authorizes a 30-day impoundment of a vehicle when a person required to have
an IID installed is found driving a vehicle without such a device.
Sacramento County Vehicle Impoundment Pilot — Driving Under the Influence (DUI)
Establishes a pilot program for Sacramento County that authorizes the seizure and impoundment of a motor vehicle when the driver is arrested for a DUI and has one or more DUI convictions within the past 10 years. The seizure and impoundment shall only occur if the county participates in a program that combines seizure and impoundment with intervention and referral to a DUI program.
The Board of Supervisors of Sacramento County must enact an ordinance or resolution authorizing the implementation of the pilot program for this section to apply.
Good Driver Discount—DUI and Manslaughter Convictions
Prohibits a person from receiving a Good Driver Insurance Discount if convicted of a DUI or manslaughter within 10 years of the date the application is made. Convictions prior to January 1, 1999, will not count for the purposes of this section.
