Honorable Ronald D. Kouchi

President of the Senate

Thirty-First State Legislature

Regular Session of 2022

State of Hawaii

Honorable Scott K. Saiki

Speaker, House of Representatives

Thirty-First State Legislature

Regular Session of 2022

State of Hawaii

Sirs:

Your Committee on Conference on the disagreeing vote of the Senate to the amendments proposed by the House of Representatives in S.B. No. 2679, S.D. 2, H.D. 2, entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO DRIVER'S LICENSES,"

having met, and after full and free discussion, has agreed to recommend and does recommend to the respective Houses the final passage of this bill in an amended form.

The purpose of this measure is to extend the renewal period from two years to four years for licensees who are seventy-two years of age or older but younger than eighty years of age.

Your Committee on Conference finds that drivers seventy-two years of age or older but younger than eighty years of age without conditions that could impair their driving ability are safe enough to have a license renewal period of four years rather than two.

Your Committee on Conference has amended this measure by changing the effective date to January 1, 2023.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the managers of your Committee on Conference that is attached to this report, your Committee on Conference is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 2679, S.D. 2, H.D. 2, as amended herein, and recommends that it pass Final Reading in the form attached hereto as S.B. No. 2679, S.D. 2, H.D. 2, C.D. 1.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the managers:

ON THE PART OF THE HOUSE
