  8.25  the time, of the operation was 0.10 0.08 or more or the person 
  8.26  violates section 169A.20, subdivision 1, clauses (1) to (4) or 
  8.27  (7). 
  8.28     (b) The commissioner shall disqualify a person from 
  8.29  operating a commercial motor vehicle as provided under section

  9.2   amended to read: 
  9.3      169A.76 [CIVIL ACTION; PUNITIVE DAMAGES.] 
  9.4      (a) In a civil action involving a motor vehicle accident, 
  9.5   it is sufficient for the trier of fact to consider an award of 
  9.6   punitive damages if there is evidence that the accident was 
  9.7   caused by a driver: 
  9.8      (1) with an alcohol concentration of 0.10 0.08 or more; 
  9.9      (2) who was under the influence of a controlled substance; 
  9.10     (3) who was under the influence of alcohol and refused to 
  9.11  take a test required under section 169A.51 (chemical tests for 
  9.12  intoxication); or 
  9.13     (4) who was knowingly under the influence of a hazardous 
  9.14  substance that substantially affects the person's nervous 
  9.15  system, brain, or muscles so as to impair the person's ability 
  9.16  to drive or operate a motor vehicle. 
  9.17     (b) A criminal charge or conviction is not a prerequisite 
  9.18  to consideration of punitive damages under this section.  At the 
  9.19  trial in an action where the trier of fact will consider an 
  9.20  award of punitive damages, evidence that the driver has been 
  9.21  convicted of violating section 169A.20 (driving while impaired) 
  9.22  or 609.21 (criminal vehicular homicide and injury) is admissible 
  9.23  into evidence.

  9.31     (1) the driver's record pertaining to revocations, 
  9.32  suspensions, cancellations, disqualifications, convictions, and 
  9.33  accidents shall be cumulative and kept for a period of at least 
  9.34  five years; and 
  9.35     (2) the driver's record pertaining to the alcohol-related 
  9.36  offenses and licensing actions listed in section 169A.03, 
 10.1   subdivisions 20 and 21, and to violations of sections 169A.31 
 10.2   and 171.24, subdivision 5, shall be cumulative and kept for a 
 10.3   period of at least 15 years, except as provided in clause (3); 
 10.4   and 
 10.5      (3) the driver's record pertaining to an offense, or a 
 10.6   related licensing action, under section 169A.20, subdivision 1, 
 10.7   clause (1) or (5), must be purged after ten years of any 
 10.8   reference to the offense or action if (i) this offense or action 
 10.9   involved an alcohol concentration of 0.08 or more but less than 
 10.10  0.10, (ii) this offense or action was a first impaired driving 
 10.11  incident, and (iii) the driver has incurred no other impaired 
 10.12  driving incident during the ten-year period.  For purposes of

 10.14  that may be counted as a prior impaired driving conviction or a 
 10.15  prior impaired driving-related loss of license, as defined in 
 10.16  section 169A.03, subdivisions 20 and 21.

 10.18  amended to read:
