Adding grievance and appellate procedures for individuals participating in DMV safety and treatment program
SB 58 adds formal grievance and appeal processes for individuals participating in West Virginia's DMV Safety and Treatment Program, which helps drivers with license suspensions related to DUI offenses. It prohibits the DMV from requiring minimum driving time, mileage, or frequency in the Alcohol and Drug Test and Lock Program, and stops removing participants for failing these requirements. The bill also mandates that the DMV reinstate former program participants who meet specific criteria - without charging them fees - after they complete required treatment. This directly affects drivers whose licenses were suspended for alcohol/drug-related offenses and who are enrolled in the state's treatment program.
