Drivers and motor vehicles
Under current law, DOT must charge an applicant for a commercial driver license a fee of $64 and, if applied for at the same time, a fee of $5 for an endorsement to operate a school bus. DOT must also charge an applicant for any license a fee of $10. This bill waives those fees for an applicant holding a military commercial driver license.
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:
