HCS HB 1309 -- TEMPORARY DRIVER'S PERMIT

SPONSOR:  St. Onge (Day)

COMMITTEE ACTION:  Voted "do pass by consent" by the Committee on
Transportation by a vote of 10 to 0.

This substitute allows, in addition to a parent, grandparent, or
legal guardian, any family member older than 21 years of age to
give written permission for a temporary instruction permit
application and to occupy the seat beside the driver with a
temporary instruction permit to provide driver instruction if the
temporary instruction permit holder obtains the written consent
of the motor vehicle owner.

FISCAL NOTE:  No impact on state funds in FY 2009, FY 2010, and
FY 2011.

PROPONENTS:  Supporters say that for various reasons a parent,
grandparent, or guardian cannot assist a temporary instruction
permit holder with the required driver training so it is good to
expand those authorized to assist in the instruction.

Testifying for the bill was Representative Day.

OPPONENTS:  There was no opposition voiced to the committee.
