The California Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and the California Highway Patrol (CHP) announced a new joint pilot program to take drivers who are caught speeding more than 100 mph off California roads faster. The program, called Forwarded Actions for Speeding Tickets (FAST), automatically refers these law breakers to the DMV Driver Safety Branch. Driver Safety will review the incident and driver’s record to determine whether immediate action — such as suspending or revoking the driver’s license — is warranted. The DMV decision is independent of any judicial actions associated with the citation and does not depend on a conviction.
