Concerning training as an alternative to driver license suspension for the accumulation of certain traffic infractions.

SB 5198 allows drivers who accumulate three or more moving traffic violations within one year (or four within two years) to avoid a 60-day license suspension by completing a safe driving course before the suspension period ends. If the course is completed, the suspension is canceled early, and the driver faces a one-year probation period instead. During probation, any new moving violation adds 30 consecutive days to the suspension, and drivers who complete the course won’t pay the standard $75 reissue fee upon reinstatement. The bill specifically applies to drivers with multiple moving violations but does not affect other suspension types like DUI or child support-related suspensions.
