HB 2654 Kansas House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Prohibiting past sanctions for failure to comply with a traffic citation that are more than five years old from being considered by courts or the division of vehicles in determining suspended or restricted driving privileges and eliminating certain notice requirements for the division of vehicles related to suspended or restricted drivers' licenses.

HB 2654 modifies Kansas law to prevent courts and the Division of Vehicles from considering traffic citation non-compliance (like unpaid fines or missed court appearances) older than five years when deciding on license suspensions or restrictions. It also eliminates specific notice requirements that courts must send to drivers about license suspension actions. This change ensures drivers with unresolved traffic violations from more than five years ago cannot face license penalties based on those outdated cases. The bill streamlines the process by removing redundant administrative steps for the Division of Vehicles.
