EXPLANATION
4
The
inclusion
of
this
explanation
does
not
constitute
agreement
with
5
the
explanation’s
substance
by
the
members
of
the
general
assembly.
6
This
bill
relates
to
the
administration

of
matters
associated
with
the
operation,
registration,
and
8
titling
of
motor
vehicles.

CHAUFFEUR’S
INSTRUCTION
PERMITS.
Under
current
law,
a
10
chauffeur’s
instruction
permit
is
valid
for
up
to
two
years
11
for
the
operation
of
a
motor
vehicle,
other
than
a
commercial
12
motor
vehicle,
as
a
chauffeur
when
the
permittee
is
accompanied
13
by
a
person
who
possesses
a
valid
class
D
driver’s
license
14
(chauffeur’s
license)
or
commercial
driver’s
license
and
who
15
is
occupying
a
seat
beside
the
permittee.
Code
section
321.1
16
defines
a
chauffeur
as
a
person
who
operates
a
motor
vehicle,
17
including
a
school
bus,
to
transport
people
for
pay,
with
18
various
exceptions.
19
The
bill
eliminates
the
chauffeur’s
instruction
permit.
20
Under
current
law
and
the
bill,
a
person
may
apply
for
a
class
21
D
driver’s
license,
and
neither
a
knowledge
test
nor
a
driving
22
test
is
required
if
the
person
holds
a
valid
driver’s
license.
23
The
person
must
pass
a
vision
screening
and
have
a
clear
24
driving
record
for
the
previous
two
years.
25
MOTOR
VEHICLE
ACCIDENT
REPORTS.
Under
current
law,
the
26
driver
of
a
vehicle
involved
in
an
accident
resulting
in
injury
27
to
or
death
of
any
person,
or
total
property
damage
to
an
28
apparent
extent
of
$1,500
or
more,
must
within
72
hours
after
29
the
accident
forward
a
written
report
of
the
accident
to
the
30
department
of
transportation
(DOT).
However,
such
report
31
is
not
required
when
the
accident
is
investigated
by
a
law
32
enforcement
agency.
Every
law
enforcement
officer
who,
in
the
33
regular
course
of
duty,
investigates
a
motor
vehicle
accident
34
of
which
report
must
be
made,
must

of
35
-23-

th/ns

27
H.F.
2268
such
accident
to
the
DOT
within
24
hours
after
completing
such
1
investigation.
2
The
bill
requires
the
driver
of
a
vehicle
to
submit
an
3
accident
report
regardless
of
injury,
death,
or
property
damage
4
if
the
vehicle
does
not
have
financial
liability
coverage
in
5
effect.
The
bill
also
increases
the
minimum
amount
of
total
6
property
damage
necessary
before
an
accident
report
is
required
7
from
$1,500
to
$5,000,
including
for
an
accident
involving
an
8
all-terrain
vehicle.
The
bill
strikes
the
24-hour
requirement
9
for
a
law
enforcement
officer
who
investigated
an
accident
10
to
forward
a
written
report
to
the
DOT,
and
requires
these
11
written
reports,
as
well
as
reports
of
accidents
involving
12
law
enforcement
officers
or
other
emergency
responders,
to
be
13
submitted
to
the
DOT
in
an
electronic
format
and
in
a
manner
14
approved
by
the
DOT.
15
By
operation
of
law,
a
driver
of
a
vehicle
who
strikes
16
fixtures
upon
a
highway
is
not
required
to
report
the
accident
17
to
the
DOT
unless
the
apparent
total
property
damage
is
$5,000
18
or
more.
A
driver
involved
in
such
an
accident
is
required
19
to
take
reasonable
steps
to
locate
and
notify
the
owner,
a
20
peace
officer,
or
person
in
charge
of
the
damaged
property
and
21
provide
the
driver’s
name
and
address,
the
registration
number
22
of
the
vehicle
causing
the
damage,
and,
upon
request
and
if
23
available,
exhibit
the
person’s
driver’s
license.
24
The
bill
does
not
amend
similar
reporting
requirements
when
25
a
person
is
in
an
accident
involving
a
snowmobile
(Code
section
26
321G.10)
that
causes
total
property
damage
of
$1,500
or
more.
27
Such
reports
must
be
filed
with
the
DOT,
or
with
the
natural
28
resource
commission
(NRC)
if
the
accident
occurred
on
public
29
land,
ice,
or
a
designated
riding
trail
under
the
jurisdiction
30
of
the
NRC.
31
By
operation
of
law,
a
person
who
fails
to
forward
a
written
32
accident
report
to
the
DOT,
as
required
under
Code
section
33

ELECTRONIC
APPLICATIONS
FOR
DRIVER’S
LICENSES
AND
2
NONOPERATOR’S
IDENTIFICATION
CARDS.
Under
current
law,
3
a
person
may
be
eligible
to
renew
a
driver’s
license
4
electronically
pursuant
to
rules
adopted
by
the
DOT.
The
bill
5
authorizes
a
person
to
renew
a
nonoperator’s
identification
6
card
electronically
if
the
person
is
eligible
pursuant
to
7
rules
adopted
by
the
DOT.
The
bill
also
authorizes
a
person
8
to
replace
a
driver’s
license
or
nonoperator’s
identification
9
card
electronically
if
the
person
is
eligible
pursuant

adopted
by
the
DOT.
The
fee
to
replace
a
driver’s
license
or
11
nonoperator’s
identification
card
is
$10.
12
The
DOT
is
currently
required,
pursuant
to
Code
section
13
321.189(6),
to
develop
educational
media
to
raise
awareness
14
of
a
person’s
eligibility
to
apply
for
a
replacement
driver’s
15
license
or
nonoperator’s
identification
card
electronically
16
upon
attaining
the
age
of

This
division
of

applies

the
DOT
submits

a

that

24
RECORDS
SYSTEM.
Pursuant
to
current
law,
the
DOT
maintains
a
25
motor
vehicle
records
system
which
is
used
for
various
purposes
26
relating
to
the
administration
of
Code
chapter
321
by
the
DOT.
27
In
addition,
each
county
treasurer
must
maintain
a
county
28
records
system
for
vehicle
registration
and
certificate
of
29
title
documents.
The
county
records
system
is
required
to
be
30
maintained
in
a
manner
approved
by
the
DOT.
The
bill
strikes
31
the
requirement
for
county
treasurers
to
maintain
a
county
32
records
system,
and
instead
requires
the
DOT
to
maintain
a
33
records
system
that
both
the
DOT
and
county
treasurers
must
use
34
for
vehicle-related

ELECTRONIC
COMMUNICATIONS.
The
bill
adds
a
person’s
14
electronic
mail
address
to
the
definition
of
“personal
15
information”
for
purposes
of
DOT
records,
and
prohibits

16
from

number,
other
than
to
specified
parties,
regardless
of

In
