Unlicensed Driver Amendments

Summary

The bill revises Utah’s driver‑licensing laws to define a "driving credential" and give peace officers broader power to seize a vehicle when the operator does not have a valid credential, unless specific safety or practical exceptions apply. It also changes fee structures, allows waivers in certain situations, updates penalties for unlicensed driving, and requires fingerprint‑device software to be compatible with law‑enforcement databases. The changes become effective in mid‑2026.
