House Bill No. 1751 amends various sections of Oklahoma's motor vehicle laws to modernize definitions, notice requirements, and credential regulations. Key changes include expanding the definition of "state" to encompass "or territory" of Canada, and designating Service Oklahoma as the responsible entity for providing notices under the law, including provisions for mailing and proof of such mailing. The bill also modifies driver license and identification card requirements, allowing individuals to hold two types of credentials until expiration and mandating the surrender of certain credentials. Additionally, it updates the issuance and renewal processes for these credentials, addresses alcohol and drug testing procedures, and repeals outdated provisions related to computerized finger imaging and the Oklahoma License Plate Design Task Force.

The bill further establishes regulations for the issuance of REAL ID Compliant and Noncompliant Driver Licenses, including a fee schedule and exemptions for certain age groups and disabled veterans. It introduces a temporary identification card for applicants and a restricted commercial driver license for specific farm-related services. The legislation also outlines the collection and testing of blood and breath samples, ensuring compliance with legal standards, and facilitates the acceptance of electronic signatures in vehicle title processing. Overall, the bill aims to streamline the management of motor vehicle regulations, enhance operational capabilities, and improve the efficiency of vehicle registration processes in Oklahoma.
