Bill Summary
AN ACT concerning traffic regulations; relating to failure to comply with a traffic citation; prohibiting past sanctions that are more than five years old from being considered by courts or the division of vehicles in determining suspended or restricted driving privileges; eliminating certain notice requirements for the division of vehicles related to suspended or restricted drivers' licenses; amending K.S.A. 2025 Supp. 8-2110 and repealing the existing section.
AI Summary
This bill, concerning traffic regulations, aims to prevent past failures to comply with traffic citations that are more than five years old from being used by courts or the division of vehicles (the state agency responsible for driver's licenses) to determine if a person's driving privileges should be suspended or restricted. It also removes certain notification requirements for the division of vehicles regarding suspended or restricted driver's licenses. Essentially, if someone failed to address a traffic ticket a long time ago, that old failure can no longer be a reason to take away or limit their ability to drive. The bill also makes these changes retroactive, meaning they apply to past situations as well.
