This bill seeks to amend the definition of "way" within the context of driving after suspension or revocation laws. Specifically, it modifies RSA 259:125, I by changing the term "paragraphs" to "paragraph" and removing references to paragraphs II and III. The bill also repeals RSA 259:125, III, which provided an additional definition of "way." This change is intended to streamline the legal language and clarify the definition used in the statute.
The bill is introduced at the request of the Department of Justice and is set to take effect on January 1, 2026. By eliminating the alternate definition, the legislation aims to create a more consistent understanding of what constitutes a "way" in legal terms, thereby potentially simplifying enforcement and compliance related to driving laws.
