Dear Mr. Speaker:

In accordance with Article II, Section 17 of the Maryland Constitution, I have today
vetoed House Bill 1024.

This bill proposes to make it a misdemeanor for a person to drive or attempt to drive any
vehicle while the person has 0.10 percent alcohol in their body.

Senate Bill 256, which was passed by the General Assembly and will be signed by me on
May 25, 1995, accomplishes the same purpose. Therefore, it is not necessary for me to
sign House Bill 1024.

Sincerely,

Parris N. Glendening

Governor

any vehicle while the person has a certain alcohol concentration in the person's

a certain alcohol concentration is prima facie evidence that a person was driving
while intoxicated; making certain conforming changes to provisions of law relating
to homicide by motor vehicle or vessel while intoxicated; making certain clarifying
changes; defining certain terms; and generally relating to penalties for drunk driving
and intoxication per se.

BY repealing and reenacting, with amendments,

- 4285 -
