       "An Act relating to motor  vehicle records and hearings                 
       of  the  Department of  Public  Safety; increasing  the                 
       period  under which a person  may drive a motor vehicle                 
       under  a  temporary  permit; relating  to  ownership of                 
       certain   abandoned   motor   vehicles;   relating   to                 
       suspension   or   revocation   of   a   motor   vehicle                 
       registration or special permit; relating to renewal  of                 
       a  driver's license  by  mail;  relating to  procedures                 
       applicable to administrative  revocation of a  driver's                 
       license;   relating   to  commercial   driver  training                 
       schools;  increasing the  property  damage amounts  for                 
       proof  of financial responsibility  and proof  of motor                 
       vehicle  eligibility in  order  to  lawfully operate  a                 
       motor vehicle in the state;  amending the definition of                 
       `commercial  motor  vehicle';  relating  to  prohibited                 
       operation  of  a   commercial  motor  vehicle   and  to                 
       disqualification  from  driving   a  commercial   motor                 
       vehicle; relating to certain notifications in accidents                 
       involving property  damage; relating  to motor  vehicle                 
       registration procedures; and providing for an effective                 
       date."                                                                  
                                                                               
  Co-Chair Hanley noted that CSSB 1010  (L&C) am is similar to                 
  CSHB 517 (TRA) am S.   He observed that CSHB 517  (TRA) am S                 
  required a title  change due  to House action  that was  not                 
  caught by Legislative Legal Services.  He concluded that the                 
  title of CSHB  517 (TRA)  am S  as before the  House is  not                 
                                                                               
                                6                                              
                                                                               
                                                                               
  correct.                                                                     
                                                                               
  SANDY PERRY PROVOST, SPECIAL ASSISTANT, DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC                 
  SAFETY  explained  that  CSSB 1010  (L&C)  am  as introduced                 
  duplicated CSHB 517 (TRA) am S as passed by the Senate.  She                 
  noted that  CSSB 1010 (L&C) am  matches CSHB 517 (TRA)  am S                 
  except  for  an  amendment  introduced  by  Senator  Halford                 
  defining "motor vehicles".   Co-Chair Hanley explained  that                 
  "motor vehicle" was defined to include cars and trucks.                      
                                                                               
  (Tape Change, SSHFC 96-4, Side 2)                                            
                                                                               
  Representative Mulder MOVED to report CSSB 1010 (L&C) am out                 
  of Committee with  individual recommendations  and with  the                 
  accompanying fiscal notes.                                                   
                                                                               
  Representative Navarre noted that the fiscal notes are zero.                 
                                                                               
                                                                               
  CSSB  1010 (L&C) am was reported out of Committee with a "do                 
  pass" recommendation and with two  zero fiscal notes one  by
