Be it Enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives in General Court convened:
1 Driver Education; Reciprocity. Amend RSA 263:20 to read as follows:
263:20 Driver Education; Reciprocity.
I. The provisions of RSA 263:19 shall not prevent the issuance of a driver’s license to any individual who can produce satisfactory evidence of completion of an equivalent course of driver education, approved by the issuing state, provided that the commissioners of safety and education acting jointly shall determine that such course is equivalent to New Hampshire’s driver education course and provided that such course meets or exceeds the state’s minimum standards.
II. The provisions of RSA 263:19 shall not prevent the issuance of a driver’s license to any individual who can produce satisfactory evidence of completion of a course of driver education in Vermont that does not meet the requirements of paragraph I if the individual submits proof satisfactory to the director that he or she resides nearer to the Vermont drivers’ school than to any New Hampshire drivers’ school and that attending a New Hampshire drivers’ school would pose a hardship to the individual.
2 Effective Date. This act shall take effect 60 days after its passage.
