Bill Summary
For legislation to promote safe driving amongst operators 85 years of age or older. Transportation.
AI Summary
This bill aims to promote safe driving for operators aged 85 and older by making several changes to existing laws. Specifically, it mandates that driver's licenses or renewals for individuals 85 and older will expire between 13 and 39 months after their issuance, on an anniversary of their birthday. To renew their license, these older drivers must apply in person at a registry branch office and successfully pass a road test administered by the registry. Additionally, the registrar, who is the head of the registry of motor vehicles, will be responsible for creating a public awareness campaign to educate drivers about safe driving techniques, methods for self-assessment of driving skills, and available local transportation options.
