Allowing CDL license renewal without medical retest under certain circumstances
SB 1025 establishes a 10-year grace period for commercial drivers in West Virginia to reinstate their licenses without a medical retest after failing to maintain a current medical examiner's certificate. This directly affects commercial drivers who let their medical certification lapse but wish to continue operating commercial vehicles. The bill authorizes reinstatement without retesting under specific conditions while requiring compliance with federal commercial driver licensing standards. It also grants the state rule-making authority to implement these changes.
