Honorable Robert Bunda

President of the Senate

Twenty-Second State Legislature

Regular Session of 2003

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committee on Transportation, Military Affairs, and Government Operations, to which was referred S.B. No. 1406 entitled:

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this measure is to delete the requirement that Commercial Driver's Licenses (CDL) bear the social security number of the licensee.

Your Committee received testimony in support of this measure from the Department of Transportation and the Honolulu Department of Customer Services.

Your Committee finds that a new driver's license numbering system took effect on January 1, 2001, and that since that time social security numbers are no longer used as driver's license numbers. Therefore, your Committee supports this measure to conform the State's CDL law with current practice.

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 S.B. No. 1406 and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be placed on the calendar for Third Reading.
