Informing the Legislature that on May 30, 2025, the Governor signed the following bill into law: SB597 HD2 CD1 (ACT 146).

This bill extends the deadline for Hawaii's administrative driver's license revocation office to issue decisions on license revocation for drivers suspected of driving under the influence (DUI). For alcohol-related cases, the deadline is now 14 days after the notice is issued; for drug-related cases, it is 28 days. The change accounts for delays in testing blood and urine samples, which Hawaii must ship to mainland labs due to lack of in-state drug testing facilities. This directly affects drivers in DUI cases and aims to ensure decisions are based on complete test results.
