Requires MVC to accept death certificate as proof of name change.
Introduced First Reading Assembly Referred to ATR
Summary
The bill lets a driver whose spouse has died change the name on their driver’s license back to the name on their birth certificate. To do so, the Motor Vehicle Commission must accept the driver’s most recent marriage certificate and the spouse’s death certificate as sufficient proof. The driver must also attest they are not changing their name to evade legal or financial obligations.
