Senator O'Donnell opened the hearing  on Senate Bill (S.B.) 377.

SENATE BILL 377:		Revises provisions relating to licensing 
and registration of certain vehicles.  
(BDR 43-567)


Senator O'Donnell attempted to explain to the committee why the 
Department of Motor Vehicles and Public Safety (DMV&PS) had 
decided that due to funding and the fact that they will have to 
recall all drivers' licenses, they do not want this bill to 
require unique numbers for everyone's driver's license.

Senator Titus, District No. 7, interrupted saying DMV&PS will do 
what the bill requires, but they need money.

Senator O'Donnell tried to explain again that DMV&PS cannot 
change the driver's license number for everyone at once.

Senator Bob Coffin, District No. 3, said he had spoken with 
Bruce Glover from DMV&PS and was told they want this bill to 
pass.

Senator Titus argued that most people do not want to have their 
driver's license changed.

Senator O'Donnell stated that he is unable to get a word in on 
this bill and closed the hearing at 11:55 p.m.
