HB258
Require notice before driver's license expires, instead of after
Current Status: In Senate Committee (Transportation)
Summary
The bill requires the Registrar of Motor Vehicles to send a notification to drivers at least fourteen days before their driver's license expires, rather than after expiration. This applies to all residents with a driver's license and aims to ensure timely renewal. Failure to provide such notification does not extend the validity of the license.
Rationale
The bill promotes individual responsibility by ensuring drivers are notified of their license expiration, aligning with the Libertarian emphasis on personal responsibility. However, it does involve government action in the form of mandated notifications, which may conflict with the principles of minimal government intervention.
Risks and Concerns
- Increased government involvement in personal affairs
- Potential for misuse of personal information in notifications
