AI Summary

This bill proposes several changes to Michigan's driver's license and vehicle registration laws: It allows for the secretary of state to issue an operator's or chauffeur's license with a designated address for individuals who are certified participants in the state's address confidentiality program, in order to protect the confidentiality of their residential address. It also extends the validity of various driver's licenses, commercial learner's permits, and vehicle registrations that would have expired on or after March 1, 2020 to March 31, 2021, to provide relief during the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, it allows for the secretary of state to enter into agreements with other public or private entities to conduct driver skills tests, and makes various other updates to the requirements and procedures for obtaining driver's licenses and vehicle registrations in Michigan.
