(1) Existing law establishes fines and penalties for a violation of the Fish and Game Code. This bill would impose additional civil penalties for a violation of specified provisions of the Fish and Game Code in connection with the production or cultivation of a controlled substance, as defined, on land within the jurisdiction of specified state and federal agencies or within the ownership of a timberland production zone as prescribed. (2) Existing law authorizes a member of the Department of the California Highway Patrol to stop any vehicle transporting any timber products, livestock, poultry, farm products, crude oil, petroleum products, or inedible kitchen grease, and inspect the bills of lading, shipping, or delivery papers, or other evidence to determine whether the driver is in legal possession of the load, and, upon reasonable belief that the driver of the vehicle is not in legal possession, to take custody of the vehicle and load and turn them over to the custody of the sheriff of the county in which any of those items are apprehended. Existing law also generally prohibits a person from driving a motor vehicle upon a highway, unless the person then holds a valid driver's license. This bill would authorize a peace officer, as described, to stop a vehicle transporting agricultural irrigation supplies, as defined, that are in plain view on a rock or unpaved road that is located in a county that elects to implement these provisions, and within the jurisdiction of specified state or federal agencies or within the ownership of a timberland production zone and to inspect the bills of lading, shipping, or delivery papers, or other evidence to determine whether the driver is in legal possession of the load, and, upon reasonable belief that the driver of the vehicle is not in legal possession, to take custody of the vehicle and load and turn them over to the custody of the sheriff of the county in which any of those items are apprehended. The bill would, except as specified, prohibit a peace officer from impounding a vehicle at a traffic stop made pursuant to this authorization if the driver's only offense is a violation of the prohibition against driving a motor vehicle upon a highway without holding a valid driver's license. The bill would require a peace officer making the stop who encounters a driver in violation of this prohibition to take certain actions with regard to obtaining from the registered owner of the vehicle authorization to release the vehicle to a licensed driver. The bill would authorize the board of supervisors of a county to adopt a resolution to elect to implement these provisions. (3) The bill would declare the intent of the Legislature that the implementation of the bill's provisions not contradict the purposes or application of the Compassionate Use Act of 1996 and the Medical Marijuana Program.
