Bill > HB2878

This bill, known as the "Safe Mobility Act," makes several changes to Arizona's laws regarding driver and non-operating identification licenses, primarily focusing on the information required for applications and the validity periods of licenses. Key provisions include the addition of "consular identification card" as a type of identification that can be used in certain contexts, and the inclusion of "individual taxpayer identification number" and "consular identification card number" as acceptable alternatives to a social security number on license applications. The bill also clarifies that if an applicant for a driver's license or instruction permit does not provide a social security number, the license will be marked as "For driving privileges only. Not valid for identification," and its validity period will be extended to eight years. Conversely, licenses issued to applicants who do provide a social security number will generally be valid until their sixty-fifth birthday, with provisions for renewal. The bill also removes a previous requirement for applicants to prove their legal presence in the United States, instead focusing on the collection of alternative identification numbers.
