The bill amends K.S.A. 8-2,128, which defines various terms related to commercial driving and motor vehicle regulations in Kansas. Key definitions include "alcohol," "commercial driver's license," "commercial motor vehicle," and "serious traffic violation." Notably, the bill updates the definition of "conviction" by removing the phrase "and" from the previous language, clarifying the criteria for what constitutes a conviction in the context of driving offenses. Additionally, the term "motor vehicle" is revised to replace "which" with "that," streamlining the language for clarity.

Furthermore, the bill repeals the existing K.S.A. 8-2,128, indicating a significant overhaul of the legal framework governing commercial driving in Kansas. The changes aim to enhance the clarity and precision of the definitions used in the law, which is essential for effective enforcement and compliance. The act will take effect upon its publication in the statute book, ensuring that the updated definitions are promptly integrated into Kansas law.
