drive by shooting; weapon discharge
This bill defines drive-by shooting as intentionally firing a weapon from a moving vehicle at a person, another car, or a building, and classifies the offense as a class 2 felony. It mandates that vehicles used in such incidents be subject to seizure and forfeiture, while also requiring courts to revoke the driver's license of the convicted person for a period of one to five years. The legislation applies to anyone who commits these acts and ensures that the Department of Transportation enforces the license revocation based on the court's order.
