Bill Summary

AN ACT AMENDING SECTION 13-3403, ARIZONA REVISED STATUTES; repealing sections 13-3403.01 and 13-3403.02, ARIZONA REVISED STATUTES; amending section 28-3309, Arizona Revised Statutes; RELATING TO DRUG OFFENSES.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing Arizona law to prohibit the knowing inhalation, ingestion, use, or possession of any substance containing amyl nitrite or nitrous oxide, and also makes it illegal to sell or transfer any container that exclusively contains nitrous oxide. It also updates regulations for selling vapor-releasing substances containing toxic substances, requiring sellers to record purchaser information and keep records for three years, and mandates that these substances be kept out of customer reach. The bill clarifies exceptions for these regulations, including transfers from parents to children, sales for industrial purposes, and specific uses of nitrous oxide in automotive applications and food preparation. Additionally, it repeals two previous sections of law related to drug offenses and modifies a section concerning driver's license suspensions to reflect the new prohibitions on nitrous oxide. Violations of these provisions are classified as a class 5 felony, though courts have discretion to reduce it to a class 1 misdemeanor.
