This bill amends and reenacts section 64-8-1 of the Code of West Virginia, 1931, to authorize the Division of Motor Vehicles (DMV) to promulgate a legislative rule concerning various aspects of driving privileges. Specifically, the rule addresses issues such as denial, suspension, revocation, disqualification, restriction, non-renewal, cancellation, administrative appeals, and reinstatement of driving privileges. The legislative rule was initially filed in the State Register on August 14, 2024, and was modified to meet the objections of the Legislative Rule-Making Review Committee before being refiled on October 2, 2024.

The bill aims to streamline the process and clarify the authority of the DMV in managing driving privileges through the establishment of this legislative rule. By doing so, it seeks to enhance the regulatory framework governing driving privileges in West Virginia, ensuring that the DMV has the necessary guidelines to effectively handle administrative matters related to driving status.
