Final answer:
The court or DMV will suspend or revoke driving privileges for serious traffic offenses, including DWI. Senate Bill 1070 permits police to question citizenship based on 'reasonable suspicion,' which opponents argue may lead to racial profiling practices like 'Driving While Brown.'
Step-by-step explanation:
The court or Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) will suspend or revoke a driver's privilege to drive if they are convicted of specific offenses. Such actions by the court or DMV are typically in response to serious traffic violations, which can include Driving While Intoxicated (DWI), reckless driving, or accumulating too many points on a driver's license. As part of these laws, certain conditions may also allow law enforcement to question a person's citizenship. This controversial aspect, which came into public awareness with Arizona's Senate Bill 1070 in 2010, allows police to demand immigration papers based on 'reasonable suspicion that the person is an alien who is unlawfully present in the United States.' Critics argue that such laws can lead to racial profiling, such as being pulled over for 'Driving While Brown,' a play on the terms DWI and 'Driving While Black,' indicating the discriminatory practice of targeting individuals for stops based on their race or ethnicity.
