Motor Vehicle Administration - Sleep Apnea - Reporting Requirement Prohibition

HB 425 prohibits Maryland's Motor Vehicle Administration from requiring drivers or license applicants to report a sleep apnea diagnosis. This bill amends Maryland's transportation code (Section 16-118) by adding a new subsection (C-1) that explicitly bans the Administration from mandating such notifications. The law directly affects individuals diagnosed with sleep apnea who hold or apply for driver's licenses. The key change removes an existing reporting obligation, making it unlawful for the DMV to ask about this medical condition. The bill takes effect October 1, 2026.
