Bill > S1081

This bill amends and adds to existing law to provide for a restricted driver's license. The key provisions are: 1. The bill creates a new section allowing individuals who are domiciled in Idaho, meet the age requirements for a class D driver's license, and can provide valid identification documentation to apply for and obtain a restricted driver's license, even if they are not lawfully present in the United States. 2. The restricted driver's license would be valid for two years, have the same requirements and fees as a class D driver's license, but would not be valid for voting, purchasing firearms, or other official uses reserved for U.S. citizens. 3. The bill makes various other changes to accommodate the new restricted driver's license, such as amending provisions related to application requirements, examination procedures, and license expiration and renewal. The bill is intended to provide driving privileges to individuals who may not be able to obtain a standard class D driver's license due to their immigration status.
