Senate Bill No. 598 amends Section 6-105 of the Oklahoma Statutes regarding driver licenses, specifically focusing on farm permits. The bill introduces a process for individuals issued a farm permit to transition to a standard driver license. It updates statutory language and references, including the deletion of outdated section numbers and the insertion of new ones. Notably, the bill allows individuals who have held a farm permit for at least one year and are at least sixteen years old to apply for a Class D license, provided they meet certain conditions, such as completing required driving hours and submitting necessary affidavits.

Additionally, the bill outlines specific restrictions for farm permit holders, including limitations on passenger numbers and operating vehicles in certain areas. It emphasizes the importance of adult-supervised driving and mandates that all driver education courses include information on the dangers of texting while driving and the effects of alcohol. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, and includes an emergency clause for immediate implementation upon passage and approval.
