The proposed bill establishes a new "reintegration driver's license" for individuals who have been released from custody after serving at least 180 consecutive days in a correctional facility. To qualify, applicants must be 18 years or older, have had their driver's license suspended or revoked for specific violations prior to incarceration, and meet additional conditions related to insurance and court orders. The bill outlines the application process, which must be completed within one year of release for those released on or after April 1, 2024, or by April 1, 2025, for those released earlier. Importantly, the bill prohibits the imposition of fees for obtaining this license and specifies that it cannot be renewed.

Additionally, the bill includes provisions for the cancellation of the reintegration license if the holder commits violations that would typically lead to suspension or revocation of a driver's license. It also allows for the issuance of a regular driver's license after holding the reintegration license for at least one year, provided certain conditions are met, including the forgiveness of any outstanding fees. The effective date for this legislation is set for April 1, 2024.
