Bill Would Require Drug Offender Status Be Labeled on Driver’s License

The bill's author, state Rep. Rickey Hardy, a Republican, said the law would simply provide for the well being of police officers who, rather than having to wait on running criminal checks during routine traffic stops, could use licenses to find out a person's drug history immediately, saying, "We don't want to run the name and then the person shoots at the officer while he's doing that."
