This bill aims to amend the application and examination process for obtaining a driver's license in Arkansas by updating the contents of the written driver's license test and the driver's instruction manual. Specifically, it introduces new provisions that require the inclusion of hand signals used by bicycle operators to communicate actions such as turning, slowing, and stopping.

The proposed amendments will add a new subdivision to Arkansas Code 27-16-706, which governs the written test for driver's licenses, and another subdivision to Arkansas Code 27-18-108, which pertains to the driver's instruction manual. These changes are intended to enhance the knowledge of all drivers regarding bicycle safety and communication on the road, thereby promoting safer interactions between motor vehicles and bicycles.
