Bill S.152, introduced by Senators Clarkson, Harrison, and Vyhovsky, aims to enhance the requirements for older drivers renewing their operator's licenses in Vermont. The bill stipulates that residents aged 80 and older must appear in person at a Department location and pass a vision test to renew their licenses. Additionally, for residents aged 85 and older, the bill mandates that they must also pass a road test as part of the renewal process.
The bill amends current law by modifying the language regarding the examination requirements for license renewals. Specifically, it replaces gendered pronouns with neutral terms, ensuring clarity in the language used. The act is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, if passed.
