Mississippi HB289 would suspend driver's licenses for failure to appear in court for serious traffic violations.
Mississippi HB289 proposes to amend state law to authorize the Commissioner of Public Safety to suspend the driver's license of individuals who fail to appear in court for serious traffic violations. The suspension would take effect unless the accused pays a reinstatement fee or the fee is waived by the court. The bill also outlines procedures for license reinstatement and sets conditions for disqualification periods, including life-long disqualifications for certain offenses. The changes would apply to both regular and commercial driver's licenses.
