2 17 EXPLANATION
2 18 This bill amends Code section 321.180B, relating to
2 19 graduated driver's licenses for persons aged 14 through 17
2 20 years. The bill allows an instruction permit or an
2 21 intermediate driver's license issued by another state which
2 22 has comparable requirements to an instruction permit or
2 23 intermediate license issued in this state to be used to meet
2 24 the requirements for obtaining an intermediate driver's
2 25 license or a full driver's license in this state.
2 26 The bill also requires that the possession of an
2 27 instruction permit or intermediate driver's license for a
2 28 designated period of time by an applicant for an intermediate
2 29 driver's license or full driver's license must occur
2 30 immediately preceding application for the respective license.
