TO CREATE A DESIGNATION FOR A REGISTERED SEX OFFENDER ON A DRIVER'S LICENSE OR IDENTIFICATION CARD.

HB 1984 creates a new designation on driver's licenses and identification cards for certain registered sex offenders in Arkansas. It directly affects individuals applying for these cards who are required to register as sex offenders and are classified as Level 3 or Level 4. Before issuing a license or ID, the Office of Driver Services will determine if an applicant meets these criteria. If so, a designation will be placed on their card, allowing law enforcement officers to identify them as a registered sex offender. The office is also authorized to determine the design and placement of this designation and create administrative rules.
