This bill amends the current law regarding the driving privileges of individuals holding a special minors restricted driver's license in Iowa. It expands the list of approved locations where these licensees can operate a motor vehicle without supervision to include established places of religious worship. Specifically, the bill allows licensees to drive to attend religious worship services or participate in volunteer service programs at their designated place of worship, provided the driving distance does not exceed 25 miles from their point of origin.

Additionally, the bill modifies the restrictions on when a licensee can operate a vehicle by including "religious worship service" and "volunteer service program" alongside existing activities such as school and work. Violations of these restrictions remain classified as simple misdemeanors, resulting in a $70 fine and a three-month suspension of the license, with an additional three-month prohibition on obtaining an intermediate license after the individual turns sixteen.
