This bill amends Section 31-11-10 of the General Laws to eliminate the requirement of paying reinstatement fees to restore a person's right to drive. Currently, a person whose license or privilege to drive has been revoked or suspended must pay a reinstatement fee of $150.00 to have their license or privilege renewed or restored. This bill removes the requirement for the reinstatement fee. However, the bill does not eliminate the requirement for an investigation of the person's driving ability before their license or privilege can be restored. The bill also allows a person whose license has been suspended on the basis of physical or mental fitness to request a review of the suspension determination at any time. This bill would take effect upon passage.
