FLOOR ACTION:
SF 2009 – Special Minor’s Permit
SF 2009
allows a person issued a special
minor’s permit who attends a public school to drive 50 miles from point of
origin to destination. Licensees who attend a nonpublic school currently
operate under a similar 50-mile restriction. The bill strikes a provision that
the school activity must be in a school district contiguous to where the
student is enrolled.
[3/10: 48-0 (Absent: Breitbach, Feenstra)]
SF 2061 – License exemptions for agriculture
SF 2061
– Current law exempts those driving
farm tractors and implements of husbandry to nearby or adjacent farmland from
driver’s license requirements. The bill strikes the “nearby or adjacent”
requirement from Iowa Code.
[3/11: 46-0 (Absent: Breitbach, Brown, Hogg, Feenstra)]
SF 2298– Peace officers driving instructions
SF
2298 allows certain peace officers and retired peace officers to provide
driving instruction and to be exempt from Department of Transportation and
Board of Educational Examiners certification. Qualified peace officers must have
a clean driving record and take an annual behind-the-wheel refresher course
offered by the DOT.
