Bill Summary

AN ACT concerning motor vehicles; relating to the Kansas uniform commercial drivers' license act; modifying the definition of conviction in the uniform act; amending K.S.A. 8-2,128 and repealing the existing section.

AI Summary

This bill modifies the definition of "conviction" within the Kansas Uniform Commercial Drivers' License Act, which sets standards for commercial driver's licenses (CDLs) to ensure road safety. The changes primarily involve replacing the word "and" with "in" within the definition of conviction, which is defined as an unvacated adjudication of guilt or a determination that a person has violated or failed to comply with the law in a court or administrative proceeding, including pleas, fines, or violations of release conditions, regardless of whether the penalty is suspended or probated. Additionally, the bill makes minor grammatical adjustments throughout the existing law, such as changing "which" to "that" in several instances to improve clarity and flow, and it repeals the existing version of K.S.A. 8-2,128, which contains these definitions, to enact the updated version.
