AI Summary

This bill increases the fees required to reinstate a driver's license that was suspended due to a conviction for operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or narcotics. Specifically, the reinstatement fee will now be $150 for a first offense, $250 for a second offense, and $350 for each subsequent offense, an increase from the previous amounts. Furthermore, the bill mandates that these fees will be adjusted annually based on the Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U), which is a measure of the average change over time in the prices paid by urban consumers for a market basket of consumer goods and services, ensuring the fees keep pace with inflation.
