  1 15 a commercial driver's license is renewable without a
  1 16 driving skills test within one year after its
  1 17 expiration date.
  1 18    Sec.    .  Section 321.196, unnumbered paragraph 1,
  1 19 Code 1999, is amended to read as follows:
  1 20    Except as otherwise provided, a driver's license,
  1 21 other than an instruction permit, chauffeur's
  1 22 instruction permit, or commercial driver's instruction
  1 23 permit issued under section 321.180, expires, at the
  1 24 option of the applicant, two or four years from the
  1 25 licensee's birthday anniversary occurring in the year
  1 26 of issuance if the licensee is between the ages of
  1 27 seventeen years eleven months and seventy years on the
  1 28 date of issuance of the license.  If the licensee is
  1 29 under the age of seventeen years eleven months or age
  1 30 seventy or over, the license is effective for a period
  1 31 of two years from the licensee's birthday anniversary
  1 32 occurring in the year of issuance.  Except as required
  1 33 in section 321.188, and except for a motorcycle

  1 36 without written examination or penalty within a period
  1 37 of sixty days after its expiration date and without a
  1 38 driving test within a period of one year after its
  1 39 expiration date.  A person shall not be considered to
  1 40 be driving with an invalid license during a period of
  1 41 sixty days following the license expiration date.
  1 42 However, for a license renewed within the sixty-day
  1 43 period, the date of issuance shall be considered to be
  1 44 the previous birthday anniversary on which it expired.
  1 45 Applicants whose licenses are restricted due to vision
  1 46 or other physical deficiencies may be required to
  1 47 renew their licenses every two years.  For the
  1 48 purposes of this section the birthday anniversary of a
  1 49 person born on February 29 shall be deemed to occur on
  1 50 March 1.  The department in its discretion may
  2  1 authorize the renewal of a valid driver's license

  2  3 application without an examination provided that the
  2  4 applicant satisfactorily passes a vision test as
  2  5 prescribed by the department, files a vision report in
  2  6 accordance with section 321.186A which shows that the
  2  7 applicant's visual acuity level meets or exceeds those
  2  8 required by the department, or is eligible for renewal
  2  9 by mail pursuant to rules adopted by the department.
  2 10 The department may assess an applicant a fee of no
  2 11 more than two dollars for administration and mailing
  2 12 expenses for providing for renewal of the applicant's
  2 13 driver's license by mail."
