  1  9 following:
  1 10    "Sec.    .  Section 321.196, unnumbered paragraph
  1 11 1, Code 2001, is amended to read as follows:
  1 12    Except as otherwise provided, a driver's license,
  1 13 other than an instruction permit, chauffeur's
  1 14 instruction permit, or commercial driver's instruction
  1 15 permit issued under section 321.180, expires, at the
  1 16 option of the applicant, two or four years from the
  1 17 licensee's birthday anniversary occurring in the year
  1 18 of issuance if the licensee is between the ages of
  1 19 seventeen years eleven months and seventy years on the
  1 20 date of issuance of the license.  If the licensee is
  1 21 under the age of seventeen years eleven months or age
  1 22 seventy or over, the license is effective for a period
  1 23 of two years from the licensee's birthday anniversary
  1 24 occurring in the year of issuance.  Except as required
  1 25 in section 321.188, and except for a motorcycle
  1 26 instruction permit issued in accordance with section
  1 27 321.180 or 321.180B, a driver's license is renewable
  1 28 without written examination or penalty within a period
  1 29 of sixty days after its expiration date and without a
  1 30 driving test within a period of one year after its
  1 31 expiration date.  A person shall not be considered to
  1 32 be driving with an invalid license during a period of
  1 33 sixty days following the license expiration date.
  1 34 However, for a license renewed within the sixty-day
  1 35 period, the date of issuance shall be considered to be
  1 36 the previous birthday anniversary on which it expired.
  1 37 Applicants whose licenses are restricted due to vision
  1 38 or other physical deficiencies may be required to
  1 39 renew their licenses every two years.  For the
  1 40 purposes of this section, the birthday anniversary of
  1 41 a person born on February 29 shall be deemed to occur
  1 42 on March 1.  The department in its discretion may
  1 43 authorize the renewal of a valid driver's license
  1 44 other than a commercial driver's license upon
  1 45 application without an examination provided that the
  1 46 applicant satisfactorily passes a vision test as
  1 47 prescribed by the department, files a vision report in
  1 48 accordance with section 321.186A which shows that the
  1 49 applicant's visual acuity level meets or exceeds those
  1 50 required by the department, or is eligible for renewal
  2  1 by mail pursuant to rules adopted by the department.
  2  2 The department may assess an applicant a fee of no
  2  3 more than two dollars for administration and mailing
  2  4 expenses for providing for renewal of the applicant's
  2  5 driver's license by mail.  An application for renewal
  2  6 of a driver's license shall include a statement for
  2  7 the applicant to sign that acknowledges the
  2  8 applicant's knowledge of the requirement to notify the
  2  9 department of a mailing address change under section
  2 10 321.182, subsection 1."
  2 11    #3.  By renumbering, redesignating, and correcting
  2 12 internal references as necessary.
