HB 199 North Carolina House · 2023-2024 Session

DMV Proposed Legislative Changes.

This bill authorizes the North Carolina Division of Motor Vehicles to study and potentially implement digital mobile driver's licenses that function as legal supplements to physical cards. It also clarifies that ignition interlock devices are required for individuals with habitual impaired driving convictions or specific high-BAC offenses, expanding the scope of this safety measure. Additionally, the legislation increases fees for acknowledging signatures on official documents and clarifies the limited circumstances under which transporter plates can be used for moving truck cabs and bodies. These changes aim to modernize licensing options, enhance safety enforcement, and adjust administrative costs for the state.
