Bill > SB2991

This bill clarifies that individuals whose driver's licenses have been revoked due to certain alcohol-related offenses must undergo a reexamination before the examiner of drivers can reissue their license. This change specifically applies to those whose licenses are revoked under sections 291E-61 and 291E-61.5 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes, which deal with driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. The bill amends existing law to ensure that after the revocation period ends, the person must not only have completed the revocation but also successfully pass an examination, as outlined in section 286-108, before being eligible for a new driver's license. This aims to enhance highway safety by ensuring drivers who have committed serious alcohol-related offenses are re-evaluated before regaining their driving privileges.
