SB 216 Oklahoma Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Driver licenses; extension of certain driver license; requiring mailing of driver license to certain individual. Effective date.

SB 216 extends Oklahoma driver license expiration dates for individuals released from state prison who held valid licenses before incarceration. It directly affects people convicted of non-mandatory-revocation offenses who had unexpired licenses during their sentence. The bill requires the Department of Corrections to provide release documentation to help obtain a provisional license without upfront fee payments, and sets a $25 monthly payment plan for outstanding fees after a six-month period. Service Oklahoma may suspend provisional licenses for non-payment. The law takes effect July 1, 2025.
