Bill Summary
A bill for an act relating to transportation; amending eligibility for restricted drivers' licenses for farm work; amending Minnesota Statutes 2022, section 171.041.
AI Summary
This bill amends the eligibility requirements for restricted drivers' licenses that allow farm workers aged 15 and older to operate motor vehicles for farm work. The key changes are: 1) removing the requirement that the license holder must be assisting their parents or guardians with farm work, allowing them to work for any authorized farm entity; 2) allowing the license holder to operate a vehicle within 40 miles of the farm where they are working, rather than just their parents' or guardians' farmhouse; and 3) requiring a written statement from the farm owner, if the applicant is not working for a parent or guardian, explaining the necessity for the license.
