This bill amends RSA 263:12, VI by removing the provision that allowed the director of the division of motor vehicles to manufacture, advertise for sale, sell, or possess any fictitious, facsimile, or simulated license to drive a motor vehicle unless specifically authorized by the director. The deletion of this authorization means that the director will no longer have the ability to engage in these activities, thereby tightening regulations around the issuance of identification documents.

The bill aims to enhance the integrity of identification documents by preventing unauthorized individuals from creating or distributing fake licenses. It is set to take effect 60 days after its passage, reinforcing the state's commitment to combatting fraud and ensuring that only legitimate identification is issued.
