KENTUCKY....
The Senate Judiciary Committee has approved a bill from Senator Ray Jones aimed at strengthening Kentucky's DUI laws. Senate Bill 144 would reduce the alcohol concentration from 0.18 to 0.15 for establishing an aggravating circumstance that allows for imposition of increased penalties for driving under the influence and establish a per se DUI offense for driving with a detectable level of an illegal substance or a controlled substance for which the person does not have a valid prescription.
