Bill Overview

2 provisions identified: 0 benefits, 0 costs, 2 mixed.

Stricter insurance checks and suspensions

Beginning Oct 1, 2025, the DMV verifies that every registered vehicle has liability insurance. The DMV can use many data points, but not the owner’s name as the main check. If it cannot verify coverage, it sends a request by mail or electronic notice. You must respond within 15 days. If you do not, the DMV sends a certified suspension notice (and electronic notice if you opted in). You then have 10 days to verify insurance before suspension. If still unverified, the DMV suspends the registration and requires you to return the plates. To reinstate, you must show current insurance and meet reinstatement rules, unless you prove extenuating circumstances or that the vehicle was dormant. In those cases, the DMV may reinstate for a $50 fee or lift the suspension with no fee.

Optional medical symbols on IDs

Beginning Oct 1, 2025, the DMV may run a program to put a symbol or code on your driver’s license or ID that shows a medical condition. The DMV uses one standard symbol and may also use condition‑specific symbols or ICD‑based codes. Eligible examples include anticoagulant use, diabetes, epilepsy, blindness or low vision, deafness, coronary atherosclerosis, COPD, food allergies, malignant hyperthermia, sickle cell disease, lupus, heart disease, hemophilia, schizophrenia, depression, and other mental illnesses. If the program is set up, the DMV keeps a record of the condition with your license/ID record, and law enforcement can access it like other records. The DMV posts how to apply on its website and lets the public suggest more conditions. At ID issuance or renewal, you are offered the option; license holders with eligible conditions may opt in. The DMV may accept gifts, grants, and donations to help run the program.
