of the vehicle and traffic law, and commits the crime of vehicular
manslaughter in the second degree as defined in section 125.12 of this
article, and either:

  (2) commits such crimes while knowing or having reason to know that:
(a) his or her license or his or her privilege of operating a motor
vehicle in another state or his or her privilege of obtaining a license
to operate a motor vehicle in another state is suspended or revoked and
such suspension or revocation is based upon a conviction in such other
state for an offense which would, if committed in this state, constitute
a violation of any of the provisions of section eleven hundred
ninety-two of the vehicle and traffic law; or (b) his or her license or
his or her privilege of operating a motor vehicle in this state or his
or her privilege of obtaining a license issued by the commissioner of
motor vehicles is suspended or revoked and such suspension or revocation

following a conviction for a violation of any of the provisions of
section eleven hundred ninety-two of the vehicle and traffic law;
  (3) has previously been convicted of violating any of the provisions
of section eleven hundred ninety-two of the vehicle and traffic law
within the preceding ten years, provided that, for the purposes of this
subdivision, a conviction in any other state or jurisdiction for an

article or article one hundred twenty of this title; or
  (7) commits such crime while operating a motor vehicle while a child
who is fifteen years of age or less is a passenger in such motor vehicle

  If it is established that the person operating such motor vehicle
caused such death or deaths while unlawfully intoxicated or impaired by
the use of alcohol or a drug, or by the combined influence of drugs or
of alcohol and any drug or drugs, then there shall be a rebuttable
presumption that, as a result of such intoxication or impairment by the
use of alcohol or a drug, or by the combined influence of drugs or of
alcohol and any drug or drugs, such person operated the motor vehicle in
a manner that caused such death or deaths, as required by this section
and section 125.12 of this article.
