AI Summary

  • Amends Iowa Code Section 321.215 to allow the Department of Transportation to issue temporary restricted licenses (TRLs) to persons with suspended or revoked noncommercial driver's licenses who complete a remedial driver improvement action and pay the required fee

  • Removes the current restrictions limiting TRL holders to driving only to specific places at specific times for purposes like employment, health care, education, substance use treatment, or court-ordered obligations

  • Allows TRL holders to operate motor vehicles in any manner permitted for a valid Class C driver's license, rather than being limited to verified destinations and times

  • Grandfathers in persons who already hold TRLs issued before the effective date, allowing them to continue driving without completing the newly required remedial driver improvement action

  • Retains existing prohibitions on TRL issuance for certain violations and maintains requirements that TRLs be canceled upon conviction of moving traffic violations or license term violations
