AI Summary

This bill modifies Arizona's driver license and identification card regulations by introducing several key provisions. It adds a definition for "consular identification card" and expands the types of identification numbers that can be used when applying for a driver's license, now including individual taxpayer identification numbers and consular identification card numbers. The bill removes previous restrictions related to an applicant's immigration status, allowing individuals who cannot provide a social security number to still obtain a driver's license. These licenses will be marked "For driving PRIVILEGES only. Not valid for identification" and will be valid for eight years instead of the standard five-year period. The bill also updates definitions in the state's motor vehicle code, including clarifying terms like "bulk records" and "highly restricted personal information," and adds provisions for veterans and certain other groups to have special markings or extensions on their driver's licenses. The legislation, named the "Safe Mobility Act," aims to provide more flexible licensing options while maintaining necessary identification and verification processes.
