This bill changes Kentucky's vehicle registration and driver's license renewal rules to better accommodate active-duty military members. It would allow service members, National Guard members, and reservists to renew their vehicle registration or driver's license up to 280 days early if they will be outside Kentucky when those documents expire, and gives them a grace period to renew after returning from duty outside the U.S. or the Commonwealth.
