STAND. COM. REP. NO. 888
Honolulu, Hawaii
S.D. 1
President of the Senate
Twenty-Fourth State Legislature
State of Hawaii
Madam:
Your Committee on Judiciary and Labor, to which was referred S.B. No. 784 entitled:
"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO DRIVER LICENSING,"
begs leave to report as follows:
The purpose of this measure is to clarify that when a minor's provisional vehicle license is revoked for violating the provisional licensing law, the minor need not provide proof of financial responsibility.
Your Committee received testimony in support of the bill from the licensing administrator of the City and County of Honolulu and from a representative from Mothers Against Drunk Driving. There was no opposition to the bill.
Your Committee finds that it was not the intent of the Legislature when enacting the graduated driver licensing law for provisional licensees to be subject to proof of financial responsibility requirements when they violated the basic provisions of the law that do not involve the actual operation of the vehicle. This bill will remove that requirement.
Your Committee amended the bill by more specifically referencing the subsection of the graduated driver licensing law that provides for the revocation of a driver's provisional license.
As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Judiciary and Labor that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 784, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Second Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 784, S.D. 1, and be placed on the calendar for Third Reading.
Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Judiciary and Labor,
