Honorable Calvin K.Y. Say

Speaker, House of Representatives

Twenty-Second State Legislature

Regular Session of 2003

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Transportation, to which was referred S.B. No. 1406 entitled:

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this bill is to eliminate the use of Social Security numbers on Hawaii commercial driver's licenses (CDL).

The Department of Transportation and Department of Customer Services of the City and County of Honolulu testified in support of this measure.

Since 2001, Hawaii driver's licenses have been issued with a computer-generated driver license number rather than the driver's Social Security number. However, CDLs retained the old system of using Social Security numbers as the driver license number. This measure brings the CDL process into conformity with the elimination of the use of Social Security numbers on motor vehicle driver's licenses.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Transportation that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 1406 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to the Committee on Judiciary.
