Modifying the new resident drivers' license transfer requirements,...

HB133 is a bill that aims to make it easier for new residents to transfer their driver’s licenses, update when the Division of Motor Vehicles must send out notices for violations, and allocate funds for necessary technology upgrades to ensure compliance with the law. This bill, if passed, would affect anyone who has recently moved to the state and needs to update their driver’s license, as well as the DMV by requiring them to send out notices in a timely manner and invest in the needed technology.

Recent actions include a work session on October 16, 2025, and a decision to retain the bill in committee on March 28, 2025.
