SUMMARY AS PASSED: (all summaries)
Limits on driving on a restricted permit. Provides that a person whose license to operate a motor vehicle has been suspended or revoked may be issued a restricted permit to drive for the purpose of providing medically necessary transportation of any person residing in the person's household with a serious medical problem, as designated by the court, upon written verification of need by a licensed health professional. Currently, the restriction is narrower, only allowing such person to drive an elderly parent for a medical necessity and to drive minor children to medical care facilities. This bill is similar to HB 2266.
