The bill amends existing laws related to the revocation of driver licenses in Oklahoma, specifically focusing on the Impaired Driver Accountability Program (IDAP) and the refusal to submit to testing for alcohol or drugs. It transfers the administration of IDAP from the Department of Public Safety to the Board of Tests for Alcohol and Drug Influence, which will charge an administrative fee of $150 for participation in the program. The bill updates statutory language and establishes new criteria for program participation, including the requirement for a violation-free period of at least 90 days and provisions for medical exemptions and employer exceptions regarding ignition interlock devices.
Additionally, the bill modifies the requirements for revocation of a driver license in cases of refusal to submit to testing. It specifies that the Director of Service Oklahoma will revoke licenses based on a sworn report from law enforcement, and outlines the conditions under which driving privileges can be reinstated. The bill also includes a declaration of emergency, allowing it to take effect immediately upon passage and approval.
