A Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s captain says he’s not sure what impact a bill would have that would strip repeat drunken drivers of their licenses for at least a decade. The proposal calls for revoking licenses of anyone who commits four or more drunken driving offenses or anyone who commits two or more offenses and has at least two convictions for serious crimes involving a vehicle. Sheriff’s captain Ryan Waldschmidt says drunken drivers need to be deterred from getting behind the wheel in the first place. “That’s part of the uphill battle, especially in our state, is that alcohol is ingrained in the state’s heritage,” Waldschmidt told WFDL news. It passed the Assembly last year but didn’t get a floor vote in the Senate.
