  1  1    Section 1.  NEW SECTION.  321A.40  TEMPORARY RESTRICTED
  1  2 LICENSE.
  1  3    Notwithstanding other provisions of this chapter, a person
  1  4 whose motor vehicle license has been suspended for failure to
  1  5 provide adequate financial security under section 321A.5 or
  1  6 for nonpayment of judgment under section 321A.13 may apply to
  1  7 the department for a temporary restricted license.  A
  1  8 temporary restricted license may only be issued by the
  1  9 department if it is necessary for the person to maintain the
  1 10 person's present employment.  A temporary restricted license
  1 11 shall be valid until such time as the person satisfies the
  1 12 requirements of this chapter.  
  1 13                           EXPLANATION
  1 14    Current law provides that a person who was involved in an
  1 15 accident which resulted in bodily injury or death or damage to
  1 16 property of any one person in excess of $500 shall have the
  1 17 person's license and registration suspended if the person does
  1 18 not have motor vehicle liability insurance and does not
  1 19 provide security in an amount sufficient to satisfy any
  1 20 judgment for damages resulting from the accident.  Current law
  1 21 also requires suspension for nonpayment of a judgment within
  1 22 60 days.
  1 23    This bill allows for a temporary restricted license to be
  1 24 issued to a person whose license has been suspended under
  1 25 chapter 321A.  The license may only be issued by the state
  1 26 department of transportation if the temporary restricted
  1 27 license is necessary for the person to maintain the person's
  1 28 present employment.  A temporary restricted license shall be
  1 29 valid until the person satisfies the financial responsibility
  1 30 requirements of chapter 321A.
