STAND. COM. REP. NO.2902

Honolulu, Hawaii

, 2002

RE: H.B. No. 1727

H.D. 1

 

 

Honorable Robert Bunda

President of the Senate

Twenty-First State Legislature

Regular Session of 2002

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Transportation, Military Affairs and Government Operations, to which was referred H.B. No. 1727, H.D. 1, entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO DRIVER'S LICENSE INSTRUCTION PERMIT RENEWAL,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this measure is to allow an applicant to renew a driver's license instruction permit thirty days before its expiration date and ninety days after its expiration date. Attempts to renew after the ninety days shall be treated as an application for a new driver's license instruction permit.

Testimony supporting this measure was received from the Department of Transportation and the City and County of Honolulu Department of Customer Services.

Your Committee finds that current law does not specify a renewal period for driver's license instruction permits. The accommodation provided by this measure will increase the efficiency of the driver's license permitting process while not compromising traffic safety.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Transportation, Military Affairs and Government Operations that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 1727, H.D. 1, and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to the Committee on Judiciary.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Transportation, Military Affairs and Government Operations,
