Bill > HB2399

This bill makes several changes to Arizona's transportation laws, primarily affecting the Department of Transportation (ADOT). It introduces a new definition for "apply and application" to clarify the process for department services, and it allows for blood transport vehicles to use high occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes, which are lanes designated for vehicles with multiple occupants to reduce traffic congestion. The bill also repeals a section related to honorary consular official special plates, requiring ADOT to recall these plates and issue standard ones instead. Additionally, it updates definitions for various vehicle types and driving terms, modifies requirements for driver license and non-operating identification license applications, adjusts the timeframe for license updates, and clarifies rules regarding ignition interlock devices for driving under the influence offenses. The bill also changes how abandoned junk vehicles are noticed, adjusts motor fuel tax rates, and allows for the designation of "primitive roads" with specific signage and liability protections. Finally, it updates the procedure for assessing registration fees for aircraft that are not registered on time, allowing for electronic transmission of notices.
