  1 35                           EXPLANATION
  2  1    This bill relates to state department of transportation
  2  2 responsibilities in the areas of driver's license revocation,
  2  3 speeding violations, motor vehicle dealer sales, and multiyear
  2  4 motor vehicle licensing.
  2  5    Division I.  Code section 321.209 is amended to require
  2  6 revocation of a driver's license or operating privilege upon
  2  7 the first conviction or forfeiture of bail for reckless
  2  8 driving.  The revocation period is stipulated in current Code
  2  9 section 321.212, subsection 1, paragraph "b".  Current law
  2 10 only requires such revocation upon a second conviction for
  2 11 reckless driving.
  2 12    Division II.  Code section 321.210 is amended to delete the
  2 13 provision which prohibits the department, for purposes of
  2 14 suspending driver's licenses, from considering the first two
  2 15 speeding violations within any 12-month period of 10 miles per
  2 16 hour or less over the legal speed limit between 34 miles per
  2 17 hour and 56 miles per hour.  Coordinating amendments are made
  2 18 to Code sections 321A.3 and 516B.3 with respect to operating
  2 19 record abstracts and insurance rates.
  2 20    Division III.  Code section 322.3 is amended to prohibit
  2 21 any person who has been convicted of a fraudulent act in
  2 22 selling, bartering, or otherwise dealing in motor vehicles, in
  2 23 this state or any other state, from being an owner,
  2 24 salesperson, or dealer representative of a licensed motor
  2 25 vehicle dealer.  The prohibition is based on conduct which
  2 26 under current Code section 322.6 would allow the department to
  2 27 deny an application for a motor vehicle dealer license.  The
  2 28 prohibition would apply for five years following such a
  2 29 conviction.
  2 30    Division IV.  Code sections 322B.3 and 322C.4 are amended
  2 31 and Code sections 321.64, 321F.4A, 321H.4A, and 322.7A are
  2 32 repealed to eliminate from the Code certain provisions for
  2 33 prorating motor vehicle and vehicle dealer license fees in the
  2 34 transition from single year to multiyear licensing.
