deemed to have given consent for
the
Bureau of

BE IT ENACTED BY THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY OF THE STATE OF OHIO:
Section 1. That sections 4501.31, 4506.11,
4507.13, and
4507.52 be amended and section 4507.062 of the Revised Code be
enacted to read as

registrar of motor vehicles or a deputy
registrar
on or after the effective
date of this section
on or
after the effective date of this amendment shall display the
social security number of
the person to whom the license, permit,
or card is issued unless the person to
whom the license, permit,
or card is to be issued specifically requests that
the person's
social security number
not be displayed on the license, permit,
or
card. If federal law requires the person's social security number
to be

security number shall be
displayed on the license, permit, or card
notwithstanding
a request to not
display the number pursuant to
this division. (B) For purposes of compliance with subparagraph
(b)(1)(B)
of section 656 of Public
Law No. 104-208, as statutorily noted

have characteristics
prescribed by the registrar of motor vehicles
distinguishing it from that
issued to a licensee who is twenty-one
years of age or older. Every
commercial
driver's license shall

appropriate and
establishes by rules adopted under Chapter 119.
of the Revised
Code and in compliance with federal law.
If the licensee requests
that the licensee's commercial driver's license
not display the
licensee's social security number, the license shall not
display
the number unless display of the number is required by federal
law. (6) The licensee's signature; (7) The classes of commercial motor vehicles the licensee
is
authorized to drive and any endorsements or restrictions
relating
to the licensee's driving of those vehicles; (8) A space marked "blood type" in which the licensee may

that
the licensee has certified that willingness; (12) If the licensee has
executed a durable power of
attorney for health care or a
declaration governing the use or
continuation, or the withholding
or withdrawal, of life-sustaining
treatment and has specified
that the licensee wishes the license
to
indicate that the licensee has executed either type of
instrument, any symbol chosen by the registrar to indicate that
the licensee
has executed either type of instrument; (13) Any other information the registrar considers
advisable
and requires by rule. (B) The registrar may establish and maintain a file of
negatives of photographs taken for the purposes of this section. (C) Neither the registrar nor any deputy registrar shall
issue a commercial driver's license to anyone under twenty-one
years of age
that does not have the characteristics prescribed by
the registrar
distinguishing it from the commercial driver's
license issued to persons who
are twenty-one years of age or
older.
Sec. 4507.062.
(A)
As used in this section, "license"
includes a driver's
license, commercial driver's license,
temporary instruction permit, or
identification card. (B)
Any person under twenty-six years of age who is required
to register with the
selective
service system in accordance with

of
a
license from any person under twenty-six years of age who is

selective service
system, the bureau
shall forward to the
selective service system in an
electronic
format the personal information necessary

Every application for a license shall state that
submission of the application will serve as the
applicant's
consent to registration with the selective service

required by federal law. (E) The bureau may accept money from the selective service
system to pay any costs that the bureau incurs in implementing
this section.
Sec. 4507.13. (A) The registrar of motor vehicles shall

of motor vehicles other than commercial motor vehicles. No
person
licensed as a commercial motor vehicle driver under
Chapter 4506.
of the Revised Code need procure a driver's
license, but no person
shall drive any commercial motor vehicle
unless licensed as a
commercial motor vehicle driver. Every driver's license shall display on it the distinguishing
number assigned to the licensee and shall display the licensee's

prescribed by the registrar, indicating
any condition described in
division (D)(3) of section 4507.08 of the
Revised Code
to which
the licensee is subject; if the licensee has executed a durable
power
of attorney for health care or a declaration governing the
use or
continuation, or the withholding or withdrawal, of
life-sustaining treatment and has specified that the licensee
wishes the license to indicate that the
licensee has executed
either type of
instrument, any symbol chosen by the registrar to
indicate that
the licensee has executed either type of instrument;
and any
additional information that the registrar requires by
rule.
A
No license
shall display the
licensee's social security
number unless the licensee specifically requests
that the
licensee's social security number
not be displayed on the license.
If federal law requires the licensee's social security number to
be displayed
on the license, the social security number shall be
displayed on the license
notwithstanding
a request to not display
the number pursuant to this section. The driver's license for licensees under twenty-one years of
age shall have
characteristics prescribed by the registrar
distinguishing it from that issued
to a licensee who is twenty-one
years of age or older, except that a
driver's license issued to a
person who applies no more than thirty days
before the applicant's
twenty-first birthday shall have the characteristics of
a license
issued to a person who is twenty-one years of age
or older. The driver's license issued to a temporary resident shall
contain the word
"nonrenewable" and shall have any additional
characteristics prescribed by the
registrar distinguishing it from
a license issued to a resident. Every driver's or commercial driver's license displaying
a
motorcycle operator's endorsement and every restricted license to
operate a motor vehicle also shall display the designation
"novice," if the endorsement or license is issued to a person who
is
eighteen years of age or older and previously has not been
licensed to operate a motorcycle by this state or another
jurisdiction recognized by this state. The "novice" designation
shall be effective for one year after the date of issuance of the
motorcycle operator's endorsement or license. Each license issued under this section shall be of such
material and so designed as to prevent its reproduction or
alteration without ready detection and, to this end, shall be
laminated with a transparent plastic material. (B) Except in regard to a driver's license issued to a
person who applies no
more than thirty days before the applicant's
twenty-first birthday, neither
the registrar nor any deputy
registrar shall
issue a driver's license to anyone under
twenty-one years of age that does not
have the characteristics
prescribed by the registrar distinguishing it from
the driver's
license issued to persons who are twenty-one years of age or
older.
Sec. 4507.52. Each identification card issued by the
registrar of motor vehicles or a deputy registrar shall
display a
distinguishing number assigned to the cardholder, and shall
display the following inscription: "STATE OF OHIO IDENTIFICATION CARDThis card is not valid for the purpose of operating a motor
vehicle. It is provided solely for the purpose of establishing
the identity of the bearer described on the card, who currently
is
not licensed to operate a motor vehicle in the state of Ohio." The identification card shall display substantially the
same
information as contained in the application and as described in
division (A)(1) of section 4507.51 of the Revised Code,
including
but shall not display the cardholder's social security number
unless the cardholder
specifically requests that the cardholder's
social security number
not be
displayed on the card. If federal
law requires the
cardholder's social
security number to be
displayed on the
identification card, the social
security number
shall be displayed
on the card notwithstanding
a request to
not
display the number
pursuant to this section. The identification
card also
shall
display the color photograph of the cardholder.
If
the cardholder
has executed a
durable power of attorney for
health
care or a
declaration
governing the use or continuation, or
the
withholding
or
withdrawal, of life-sustaining treatment and
has
specified that
the cardholder wishes the identification
card
to
indicate that the
cardholder has
executed either type of
instrument, the card also
shall
display
any symbol chosen by the
registrar to indicate that
the
cardholder has executed either type
of instrument. The card
shall be sealed in transparent plastic or
similar material and
shall be so designed as to prevent its
reproduction or alteration
without ready detection. The identification card for persons under twenty-one years of
age shall have
characteristics prescribed by the registrar
distinguishing it from that issued
to a person who is twenty-one
years of age or older, except that an
identification card issued
to a person who applies no more than thirty days
before the
applicant's twenty-first birthday shall have the characteristics
of
an identification card issued to a person who is twenty-one
years of age or
older. Every identification card issued to a resident of this state
shall
expire, unless canceled or
surrendered earlier, on the
birthday of the cardholder in the
fourth year after the date on
which it is issued. Every identification
card issued to a
temporary resident shall expire in accordance with rules
adopted
by the registrar and is nonrenewable, but may be replaced with a
new
identification card upon the applicant's compliance with all
applicable
requirements. A cardholder
may renew the cardholder's
identification card within
ninety days prior to the day on which
it expires by filing an
application and paying the prescribed fee
in accordance with section 4507.50
of the Revised Code. If a cardholder applies for a driver's or commercial
driver's
license in this state or another licensing jurisdiction,
the
cardholder shall surrender the
cardholder's identification card to
the registrar or
any deputy registrar before the license is
issued. If a card is lost, destroyed, or mutilated, the person to
whom the card was issued may obtain a duplicate by doing both of
the following: (A) Furnishing suitable proof of the loss, destruction, or
mutilation to the registrar or a deputy registrar; (B) Filing an application and presenting documentary
evidence under section 4507.51 of the Revised Code. Any person who loses a card and, after obtaining a
duplicate,
finds the original, immediately shall surrender
the original to
the registrar or a deputy registrar. A cardholder may obtain a replacement identification card
that reflects any change of the cardholder's name by
furnishing
suitable proof
of the change to the registrar or a deputy
registrar and
surrendering the cardholder's existing card. When a cardholder applies for a duplicate or obtains a
replacement identification card, the cardholder shall
pay a fee of
two dollars
and fifty cents. A deputy registrar shall be allowed
an
additional fee of
two dollars
and seventy-five cents
commencing on July 1, 2001,
three dollars and twenty-five cents
commencing on January 1, 2003,
and three dollars and fifty cents
commencing on January 1, 2004,
for
issuing a duplicate or
replacement identification card.
A
disabled veteran who is a
cardholder and has a
service-connected
disability rated at one
hundred per cent by
the veterans'
administration may apply to
the
registrar or a deputy registrar
for the issuance of a
duplicate or
replacement identification card
without payment of
any fee
prescribed in this section, and without
payment of any
lamination
fee if the disabled veteran would not be
required to
pay a
lamination fee in connection with the issuance
of an
identification card or temporary identification card as
provided
in division (B) of section
4507.50 of the Revised
Code. A duplicate or replacement identification card shall expire
on the same date as the card it replaces. The registrar shall cancel any card upon determining that
the
card was obtained unlawfully, issued in error, or was
altered.
The
registrar also shall cancel any card that
is surrendered to
the
registrar or to a deputy registrar after the holder has
obtained a
duplicate, replacement, or driver's or commercial
driver's
license. No agent of the state or its political subdivisions shall
condition the granting of any benefit, service, right, or
privilege upon the possession by any person of an identification
card. Nothing in this section shall preclude any publicly
operated or franchised transit system from using an
identification
card for the purpose of granting benefits or
services of the
system. No person shall be required to apply for, carry, or possess
an identification card. (C) Except in regard to an identification card issued to a
person who applies no more than thirty days before the applicant's
twenty-first birthday, neither the registrar nor any deputy
registrar
shall issue an identification card to a person under
twenty-one years of age
that does not have the characteristics
prescribed by the registrar
distinguishing it from the
identification card issued to persons who are
twenty-one years of
age or older.
Section 2. That existing sections
4501.31, 4506.11, 4507.13,
and 4507.52 of the Revised Code are
hereby repealed.
Section 3. Section 4507.062 of the Revised Code, as enacted
by this act, shall
