The data above is drawn from DMV’s publication Facts and Figures 2017, which is available online at http://wisconsindot.gov/Documents/about-wisdot/newsroom/statistics/factsfig/2017ff.pdf. Analysis and supporting documents used to determine effect on small business or in preparation of an economic impact analysis.
Effect on Small Businesses. The proposed changes address three main concerns for DMV customers: compliance with REAL ID, products for voting purposes, and commercial driver license compliance.
The Real ID Act of 2005 set minimum standards for issuance of state driver licenses and ID cards and implemented a deadline for compliance. While that implementation deadline has been moved back a number of times, the department began to provide its customers with the opportunity to obtain a product that is compliant with the Real ID guidelines early. With these changes already in place, and functioning successfully, permanent changes to chapter 102 of the Transportation Rules will formally codify these improvements, while still allowing for individuals to apply for and renew products that are not compliant with the Real ID requirements.
Commercial driver licensing is regulated by the FMCSA, which sets and adjusts minimum standards for states. If these standards are not met by a state, that state will not qualify for portions of federal highway monies nor will its commercial driver licenses remain valid for use in other states. By meeting these requirements, through the changes proposed in this drafting, the department will remain in compliance with FMCSA, protect against loss of highway funds, and keep Wisconsin commercial driver license holders operating on the roads.
