AI Summary
This bill modifies the requirements for new residents obtaining a New Hampshire driver's license, stating that individuals establishing residency must obtain a state license within 60 days, or 300 days for certain agricultural workers, and must notify the Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) if they cease to be a resident within that timeframe or if their out-of-state license expires or is relinquished. The bill also specifies that the DMV will send violation notices to individuals who are more than 30 days past these deadlines, and it appropriates $40,000 to the DMV for necessary technological upgrades to comply with these new provisions, including linking voter registration data to identify new residents who haven't transferred their licenses within the specified timeframe.
