Bill > HB3691

This bill makes several changes to Oklahoma's laws regarding driver's licenses, primarily affecting who can be licensed and the information required on applications. It removes a specific description of a person who cannot be licensed, related to being physically deformed, and clarifies that the Department of Public Safety, not Service Oklahoma, will determine rules for excessive alcohol or substance users needing to prove abstinence. For driver license applications, it modifies the information required, specifically for Class D licenses (standard passenger vehicle licenses), by allowing a self-certification of medical ability to drive safely instead of a medical determination by the Department. Additionally, it updates who determines the brief physical description on an application, now involving Service Oklahoma in conjunction with the Department of Public Safety, and clarifies the conditions under which previous license suspensions, revocations, or refusals are noted on an application. The bill also specifies that Service Oklahoma, not the Department, will handle proof of identity for REAL ID Noncompliant Identification Cards and for U.S. passport usage as proof of identity for driver's license applications. Finally, this act is set to become effective on November 1, 2026.
