Bill Overview
Analyzed Economic Effects
5 provisions identified: 1 benefits, 3 costs, 1 mixed.
Restricted farm CDL for local hauling
The law lets farm service workers age 18+ get a restricted commercial license. You must have held a valid license for at least one year and meet CDL medical rules. Drivers with over two years’ experience must have a good two‑year driving record. The license covers Class B or C vehicles, works only within 150 miles, and is exempt from the CDL knowledge and skills tests. You may haul limited hazardous materials: up to 1,000 gallons of diesel, up to 3,000 gallons of liquid fertilizer, and solid fertilizer not mixed with organics.
English skills required to drive trucks
All commercial drivers must speak and read enough English to do the job. You must talk with the public, read highway signs and signals, answer official questions, and fill out reports in English.
Hefty fines and 12-hour cargo rule
Carriers pay $3,000 per violation when a driver lacks required ID, a CDL, or the required English skills. A non‑compliant driver is barred from driving until fixed; driving anyway is a misdemeanor with up to a $1,000 fine or up to 90 days in jail. An English‑proficiency violation also brings a separate $1,000 penalty on the operator. Carrier fines go to the Weigh Station Improvement Fund; driver and operator fines go to the Trauma Care Assistance Fund. The state tells the carrier where the vehicle is; the carrier has 12 hours to pay and present a qualified driver or the cargo owner may move the load without liability for reasonable actions.
Nonresident CDL access and ID checks
Service Oklahoma issues non‑resident commercial learner permits and CDLs when federal and state rules are met. Any such license ends on the same date as the holder’s visa. To drive here with a foreign commercial license, it must be from Canada, Mexico, or another place with a reciprocal agreement. You must carry a valid work visa, the physical license, and proof of citizenship such as a birth certificate, naturalization certificate, or a valid passport.
New license markings for certain drivers
Service Oklahoma marks licenses for some people. Aggravated or habitual registered sex offenders get a license or ID that says “Sex Offender,” must surrender the old card within 180 days, and face a one‑year cancellation and a $25–$200 misdemeanor fine for using a canceled card. People under an ignition‑interlock order must carry a license that says “Interlock Required” until the order ends. Licenses may also show modified driving privileges when granted.
