This bill proposes to amend section 28-1595 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, which currently states that a person other than the driver who fails to provide evidence of their identity during a traffic stop is guilty of a class 2 misdemeanor. The amendment would allow passengers in a vehicle to provide their identifying information verbally instead of in written form, which is a significant change from the current requirement.

The new language specifies that the verbal identification must include the person's full name, date of birth, and residential address, if applicable. This insertion aims to streamline the identification process during traffic stops while maintaining the requirement for passengers to provide their identity to law enforcement when there is reasonable cause to believe they have committed a violation.
