OH HB492

Expands the prohibition against resisting, hindering, obstructing, or abusing a peace officer during an arrest from specific traffic code sections to all motor vehicle-related laws under Title XLV of the Ohio Revised Code, including equivalent municipal ordinances

Requires operators of motor vehicles, motorcycles, watercraft, aircraft, and other vehicles to disclose their name, address, and date of birth to a peace officer who reasonably suspects a Title XLV violation

Extends the same disclosure requirement to passengers of these vehicles when a peace officer reasonably suspects the passenger has committed a motor vehicle-related violation

Protects operators and passengers from being required to answer any questions beyond name, address, and date of birth, and permits refusal to disclose age or date of birth if age is an element of the suspected crime

Increases the penalty for interfering with an arrest from a minor misdemeanor to a second-degree misdemeanor; refusing to disclose identification information is a fourth-degree misdemeanor
