SB123,1,2 1An Act to create 343.085 (2) (d) of the statutes; relating to: exemptions from
2the requirement that an original driver's license be a probationary license.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Under current law, a probationary license is, with certain exceptions, issued to
all applicants who qualify for an original driver's license and remains in effect for two
years from the date of the licensee's next birthday. Currently, the following persons
are exempt from this requirement:
1. Certain persons who have been licensed by another jurisdiction.
2. Persons who are issued a commercial driver license.
3. Persons entitled to a regular license under a foreign license reciprocity
agreement.
Those who are exempt from the probationary license requirement are instead
issued a regular license that remains in effect for eight years after the date of
issuance.
Under this bill, a person who provides to the Department of Transportation
documentary proof that the person is enlisted in the U.S. armed forces is also exempt
from the probationary license requirement.
For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as
an appendix to this bill.
The people of the state of Wisconsin, represented in senate and assembly, do
enact as follows:
