Summary of the Introduced Bill

HB 2139 -- Driver's License Examinations

Sponsor:  Gatschenberger

This bill requires Missouri driver's license examinations to only
be administered in English so that the applicant can demonstrate
his or her ability to sufficiently understand highway traffic
signs and safety warnings.  The Director of the Department of
Revenue cannot supply or permit the use of foreign language
interpreters in connection with the required written and driving
tests.

Any applicant taking the driving portion of the examination must
pay a $25 fee, and an applicant taking the written portion must
pay $15 to be appropriated to the State Highway Patrol for the
administration of driver's license examinations.
