2010 Pennsylvania Code
Title 75 - VEHICLES
Chapter 15 - Licensing of Drivers
1586 - Duties of department.

     § 1586.  Duties of department.
        The department shall, for purposes of imposing a suspension
     or revocation under Article IV of the compact, treat reports of
     convictions received from party states that relate to driving,
     operating or being in actual physical control of a vehicle while
     impaired by or under the influence of alcohol, intoxicating
     liquor, drugs, narcotics, controlled substances or other
     impairing or intoxicating substance as being substantially
     similar to section 3802 (relating to driving under influence of
     alcohol or controlled substance). The fact that the offense
     reported to the department by a party state may require a
     different degree of impairment of a person's ability to operate,
     drive or control a vehicle than that required to support a
     conviction for a violation of section 3802 shall not be a basis
     for determining that the party state's offense is not
     substantially similar to section 3802 for purposes of Article IV
     of the compact.
