HF 3908 Minnesota House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Ignition interlock program license revocation requirements modified, driver's license indicators classified as private data, and technical corrections made.

This bill modifies Minnesota's ignition interlock program requirements and strengthens privacy protections for driver's license data. It establishes specific license revocation periods for out-of-state impaired driving convictions, requiring longer revocations for repeat offenders who must complete ignition interlock device programs. The legislation also classifies certain driver's license indicators as private data, limits how the Department of Public Safety can share this information with federal agencies, and allows individuals to request that their residence addresses be marked as private data for safety reasons. These changes directly affect drivers' license holders, the Department of Public Safety, and law enforcement agencies that handle driver records.
