HB 1013 clarifies what purposes young drivers convicted of drug or alcohol offenses can use their vehicles for during license revocation periods—specifically allowing driving for employment, childcare, medical appointments, school, court appearances, probation meetings, sobriety testing, counseling, and treatment. The bill expands the list of permitted purposes beyond what was previously allowed, giving courts more flexibility to let offenders maintain some driving privileges for essential activities while their licenses are suspended.
The amendment expanded restricted driving purposes from employment-only to include child care, health appointments, court/probation appointments, sobriety testing, counseling, and treatment, while standardizing language across both amended sections.
