Judgment, insofar as it sentences defendant as a second felony offender, unanimously reversed, on the law, and defendant remanded to Cayuga County Court for resentencing in accordance with memorandum, and, otherwise, judgment affirmed. Memorandum: Following his pleas of guilty to three counts of driving while intoxicated defendant received three concurrent sentences of two to four years' imprisonment as a second felony offender (Penal Law, § 70.06). Defendant correctly contends that he may not be sentenced as a second felony offender upon his convictions of driving while intoxicated. Section 70.06 (subd 1, par [a]) of the Penal Law provides: "A second felony offender is a person * * * who stands convicted of a felony defined in this chapter * * * after having previously been subjected to one or more predicate felony convictions". Driving while intoxicated is not a felony defined by the Penal Law and, therefore, it is exempt from section 70.06 Penal of the Penal Law (see People v. Smith, 58 A.D.2d 635; People v. Tyler, 46 A.D.2d 997). The sentencing court did not have the discretion to impose sentence of two to four years' imprisonment upon a conviction of driving while intoxicated. Section 55.10 (subd 1, par [b]) of the Penal Law provides: "Any offense defined outside this chapter which is declared by law to be a felony without specification of the classification thereof * * * shall be deemed a class E felony". Driving while intoxicated is such an offense (Vehicle and Traffic Law, § 1192, subd 5; see, also, Penal Law, § 70.00, subd 2, par [e]; subd 3, par [b]). We have examined defendant's other contentions on this appeal and find them to be without merit.
