Relating to Drivers License Address Requirements

HB 4778 allows West Virginia residents without a permanent address to obtain a standard driver's license or identification card. It directly affects people without fixed housing, such as those experiencing homelessness or living in temporary shelters. The bill requires the Department of Motor Vehicles to audit addresses used for licensing, sets standards for canceling licenses based on address issues, and waives the $5 annual fee for applicants without a permanent address. This policy change removes a significant barrier to obtaining essential identification for vulnerable residents.
