This bill amends the definition of "way" in the context of driving after suspension or revocation by modifying existing legal language. Specifically, it changes the term "paragraphs" to "paragraph" in RSA 259:125, I, and removes the additional definition of "way" found in RSA 259:125, III. The revised definition encompasses the full width between the boundary lines of various types of public and private ways, including highways, streets, and parking lots maintained for paying customers.

The bill is introduced at the request of the Department of Justice and aims to streamline the legal framework surrounding the definition of "way" by eliminating the alternate definition that may cause confusion. The changes will take effect on January 1, 2026, ensuring that the updated definition is in place for future legal considerations related to driving after suspension or revocation.
