Informing the Legislature that on May 19, 2025, the Governor signed the following bill into law: HB1162 HD2 SD2 CD1 (ACT 066).
This bill (HB1162) requires anyone applying for a motorcycle instruction permit in Hawaii to first complete a basic motorcycle rider course approved by the Department of Transportation. It directly affects individuals seeking to obtain a motorcycle instruction permit, changing the eligibility requirements under state law.
