Overview: Bill Number: HD 1032, Title: An Act establishing driver privacy protections, Status: Introduced: November 29, 2025, Classification: proposed bill
Purpose and Intent: This proposed legislation aims to enhance the privacy and security of personal information collected from drivers in the state. The bill seeks to establish safeguards and restrictions on the use and sharing of driver data to protect individuals' right to privacy.
Key Provisions:
- Prohibits the state Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) from selling or sharing driver personal information, including names, addresses, and contact details, without the driver's explicit consent
- Requires the DMV to obtain written consent from drivers before disclosing their information to third parties, except for law enforcement or government agencies as required by law
- Directs the DMV to implement robust data security measures to protect driver information from unauthorized access or misuse
- Establishes penalties for the unlawful disclosure or use of driver personal information by the DMV or third parties
Affected Parties and Impacts: The primary affected parties would be drivers in the state, whose personal information would be better protected from unauthorized access or commercial exploitation. The state DMV would be responsible for implementing the new privacy protections and ensuring compliance. Businesses and organizations that previously relied on accessing driver data from the DMV may be impacted by the new consent requirements.
Procedural and Timeline Considerations: This bill has been recently introduced and is currently in the early stages of the legislative process. If passed, the state DMV would be required to develop and implement the necessary policies and procedures to comply with the new driver privacy protections within a specified timeframe.
