| | | 12. The enactment of Public Law 1997, chapter 737, section 3 | | and Public Law 1997, chapter 776, section 36 resulted in the | | adoption of 2 conflicting amendments to Title 29-A, section 1304, | | subsection 1, paragraph E. This bill corrects that conflict by | | incorporating the changes made by the 2 enactments into a single | | paragraph. |
|
| | | 13. It prohibits a person with a motorcycle permit from | | carrying passengers. |
|
| | | 14. It authorizes the Secretary of State to waive the | | requirement that a person under 18 years of age complete driver | | education before being issued a Maine driver's license if the | | person holds a valid driver's license from another jurisdiction. |
|
| | | 15. It authorizes the Secretary of State to waive the road | | examination for an applicant for a motorcycle endorsement who has | | successfully passed an approved motorcycle rider course. It | | further provides that when the motorcycle road examination is | | waived the endorsement issued prohibits the carrying of | | passengers for 60 days. |
|
| | | 16. It provides some administrative flexibility in the | | administration of 53-foot semitrailer permits. Current law | | requires a permit for each semitrailer with length in excess of | | 48 feet up to 53 feet. This bill allows the Secretary of State | | to issue the permit to the permittee's truck tractor, instead of | | the trailer at the permittee's request. |
|
| | | 17. It repeals the definition for "ignition interlock | | device." |
|
| | | 18. It removes the Secretary of State's authority to require | | an ignition interlock device as a condition to license | | reinstatement for a person whose license is suspended following a | | conviction for operating after suspension. |
