S 1272 Idaho Senate · 68th Legislature, 2nd Regular Session (2026)

TRANSPORTATION – Amends and repeals existing law to remove obsolete language.

This bill (S 1272) removes outdated or unnecessary transportation-related laws from Idaho Code. It repeals specific sections covering obsolete penalties (e.g., Section 21-121), livestock traffic regulations (e.g., Section 40-1207), and specialty license plates (e.g., "Idaho Corvette Plates," "Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation Plates"). The bill also makes minor technical corrections to vehicle registration fee sections (49-402, 49-406, 49-406A) to remove outdated references. This is a procedural cleanup effort to modernize Idaho’s transportation code without creating new policies or affecting public fees.
