Establishes additional penalties for certain violations committed by holders of examination permits, special learner's permits, or probationary driver's licenses.
This bill introduces stricter penalties for drivers holding examination permits, special learner's permits, or probationary licenses who violate passenger restrictions. Under the new rules, the first two violations of these restrictions would result in a $100 fine and a mandatory six-hour defensive driving course. If a driver commits a third violation, the state may revoke or suspend their permit until they turn 21, though the chief administrator has the option to issue a $500 fine instead. The legislation also grants affected individuals the right to appeal any decision to revoke or suspend their driving privileges.
