     § 3816.  Requirements for driving under influence offenders.
        (a)  Evaluation using Court Reporting Network.--In addition
     to any other requirements of the court, every person convicted
     of a violation of section 3802 (relating to driving under
     influence of alcohol or controlled substance) and every person
     offered Accelerated Rehabilitative Disposition as a result of a
     charge of a violation of section 3802 shall, prior to sentencing
     or receiving Accelerated Rehabilitative Disposition or other
     preliminary disposition, be evaluated using Court Reporting
     Network instruments issued by the department and any other
     additional evaluation techniques deemed appropriate by the court
     to determine the extent of the person's involvement with alcohol
     or controlled substances and to assist the court in determining
     what sentencing, probation or conditions of Accelerated
     Rehabilitative Disposition would benefit the person or the
     public.
        (b)  Court-ordered intervention or treatment.--A record shall
     be submitted to the department as to whether the court did or
     did not order a defendant to attend drug and alcohol treatment
     pursuant to the requirements of sections 3804 (relating to
     penalties), 3814 (relating to drug and alcohol assessments) and
     3815 (relating to mandatory sentencing). If the court orders
     treatment, a report shall be forwarded to the department as to
     whether the defendant successfully completed the program. If a
     defendant fails to successfully complete a program of treatment
     as ordered by the court, the suspension shall remain in effect
     until the department is notified by the court that the defendant
     has successfully completed treatment and the defendant is
     otherwise eligible for restoration of his operating privilege.
     In order to implement the recordkeeping requirements of this
     section, the department and the court shall work together to
     exchange pertinent information about a defendant's case,
     including attendance and completion of treatment or failure to
     complete treatment.
