In addition to any other sanction imposed for the offense, the <br />court shall impose a class four suspension of the offender's driver's license, <br />commercial driver's license, temporary instruction permit, probationary <br />license, or nonresident operating privilege from the range specified in division <br />(A)(4) of Ohio R.C. 4510.02. <br />(3) If the offender also is convicted of or also pleads guilty to a specification of <br />the type described in Ohio R.C. 2941.1414 and if the court imposes a jail term <br />for the violation of subsection (b) of this section, the court shall impose upon <br />the offender an additional definite jail term pursuant to division (E) of Ohio <br />R.C. 2929.24. (ORC 4511.19) <br />(j) Physical Control Penalty. Whoever violates subsection (d) hereof is guilty of having <br />physical control of a vehicle while under the influence, a misdemeanor of the first degree. In addition to <br />other sanctions imposed, the court may impose on the offender a class seven suspension of the offender's <br />driver's license, commercial driver's license, temporary instruction permit, probationary license, or <br />nonresident operating privilege from the range specified in division (A)(7) of Ohio R.C. 4510.02.

Chapter 3793 Standards. <br />(1) No court shall sentence an offender to an alcohol treatment program under this <br />section unless the treatment program complies with the minimum standards for <br />alcohol treatment programs adopted under Ohio R.C. Chapter 3793 by the <br />Director of Alcohol and Drug Addiction Services. <br />(2) An offender who stays in a driver's intervention program or in an alcohol <br />treatment program under an order issued under this section shall pay the cost <br />of the stay in the program. However, if the court determines that an offender <br />who stays in an alcohol treatment program under an order issued under this <br />section is unable to pay the cost of the stay in the program, the court may <br />order that the cost be paid from the court's indigent drivers' alcohol treatment <br />fund. <br />(1) Appeal Does Not Stay Operation of License Suspension. If a person whose driver's or <br />commercial driver's license or permit or nonresident operating privilege is suspended under this section <br />files an appeal regarding any aspect of the person's trial or sentence, the appeal itself does not stay the <br />operation of the suspension. <br />(m) Subsection (a) (1) J. of this section does not apply to a person who operates a vehicle <br />while the person has a concentration of a listed controlled substance or a listed metabolite of a controlled <br />substance in the person's whole blood, blood serum or plasma, or urine that equals or exceeds the <br />amount specified in that subsection, if both of the following apply: <br />(1) The person obtained the controlled substance pursuant to a prescription issued <br />by a licensed health professional authorized to prescribe drugs. <br />(2) The person injected, ingested, or inhaled the controlled substance in <br />accordance with the health professional's directions. <br />(n) The prohibited concentrations of a controlled substance or a metabolite of a controlled <br />substance listed in subsection (a) (1)J. of this section also apply in a prosecution of a violation of Ohio <br />R.C. 2923.16(D) in the same manner as if the offender is being prosecuted for a prohibited <br />concentration of alcohol. <br />13 <br />
