Transportation: carriers; age requirement to operate a commercial motor vehicle; modify. Amends sec. 2d of 1963 PA 181 (MCL 480.12d).

This bill proposes to update the age requirements for drivers operating commercial motor vehicles within Michigan. It would allow individuals who are at least 18 years old to drive these vehicles for intrastate transport, while still requiring drivers to be at least 21 if they are hauling hazardous materials. The legislation also maintains the need for drivers to have valid medical clearance or grandfather rights cards. By lowering the general age limit from 21 to 18, the bill directly affects drivers and motor carriers engaged in local transportation.
