Honorable Robert Bunda

President of the Senate

Twenty-Third State Legislature

Regular Session of 2006

State of Hawaii

Sir:

Your Committees on Transportation and Government Operations and Intergovernmental Affairs, to which was referred H.B. No. 3037, H.D. 1, entitled:

beg leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this measure is to require the district court and family court to notify the driver's license examiner of all persons under the age of eighteen who have pending violations or proceedings that might result in the suspension or revocation of the provisional license, and any pending adjudication of an offense relating to the operation of a motor vehicle.

Your Committees received testimony in support of this measure from the Department of Transportation, Honolulu Police Department, Honolulu Department of Customer Services, and Mothers Against Drunk Driving Hawaii. Comments were received from the Judiciary.

Under present law and procedures, adjudications of minors in the family court involving traffic offenses are not made known to agencies which need such information for purposes of the provisional driver licensing program. Your Committees find that the driver's licensing examiner needs this information to administer the provisional driver licensing program in accordance with law.

Your Committees have amended this measure to change the effective date to July 1, 2007, to give the Judiciary adequate time to coordinate the details of transfer of information and make computer interface modifications.

As affirmed by the records of votes of the members of your Committees on Transportation and Government Operations and Intergovernmental Affairs that are attached to this report, your Committees are in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B. No. 3037, H.D. 1, as amended herein, and recommend that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as H.B. No. 3037, H.D. 1, S.D. 1, and be referred to the Committee on Judiciary and Hawaiian Affairs.
