Driver license; examinations administered exclusively in English

HB 88 requires Alabama's driver's license examinations - covering written, oral, vision, and driving portions - to be administered exclusively in English, affecting all applicants for initial licenses or renewals needing an exam. The bill prohibits the use of translation tools, electronic devices, or interpreters during testing and updates existing law to mandate this language requirement. It makes minor technical revisions to align the code with current formatting but does not alter eligibility rules for license applicants. The bill is pending in the House Public Safety and Homeland Security Committee and would take effect October 1, 2026.
