Staff Analysis of the Legislation

HB 484 amends Chapter 5 of Title 40 of the OCGA by exchanging “legal authorization from the US Immigration and Nationalization Service” to “having lawful status to be present in the United States.” In addition, a driving safety card is now permissible in place of a driver’s license to be driving on a highway. Those who are recipients of a grant or deferred action on deportation must have a driving safety card and are subject to the same carrying, exhibition, reporting, and motor vehicle insurance requirements.
