Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the state of Missouri, as follows:


            Section A. Section 302.080, RSMo, is repealed and one new section enacted in lieu thereof, to be known as section 302.080, to read as follows:

            302.080. The following persons are exempt from license hereunder:

            (1) Any person while operating any farm tractor or implement of husbandry temporarily operated or moved on a highway;

            (2) A nonresident who is at least sixteen years of age and who has in his immediate possession a valid license issued to him in his home state or country;

            (3) A nonresident who is at least eighteen years of age and who has in his immediate possession a valid license issued to him in his home state or country which allows such person to operate a motor vehicle in the transportation of persons or property as classified in section 302.015;

            (4) Convicted offenders of the department of corrections who have not been convicted of a motor vehicle felony as follows--driving while intoxicated, failing to stop after an accident and disclosing his or her identity, or driving a motor vehicle without the owner's consent--may operate state-owned trucks for the benefit of the correctional facilities, provided that such offender shall be accompanied by a correctional officer or other staff person in such truck;

            (5) Any member of the military service in an active duty status stationed outside the United States whose driver's license expired during the period of such active duty status. This exemption shall apply to such person's spouse and only apply for the ninety-day period immediately following the military member's discharge or the date on which the person returns to this state, whichever occurs first.
