H1105 - Coronavirus Relief Act 3.0. (SL 2020-97)

Overview: Section 3.15 of S.L. 2020-97 amends the applicability period of some Division of Motor Vehicles credential extensions provided for by Section 4.7 of S.L. 2020-3. An explanation of the extensions, as originally enacted, can be found in the summary for S.L. 2020-3.

This section amends the applicability period for extensions of commercial drivers licenses, commercial learner’s permits, handicapped placards, special identification cards, and inspection mechanic licenses issued by the Division of Motor Vehicles so that the extension applies to those credentials that expire between March 1, 2020, and the date 30 days after the date the Governor rescinds Executive Order No. 116 or issues another order lifting restrictions on Division functions. It also authorizes the Division to waive requirements for medical examinations and certifications for commercial drivers license and commercial learner’s permit holders consistent with any waiver issued by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration.

This section became effective August 1, 2020, and applies to expirations occurring on or after that date.
