SUMMARY
This amendment strikes from the bill language regarding the suspension of an identification card, as it is not suspended like a driver's license. The amendment also gives a law enforcement officer the authority to have towed a motor vehicle of a person who is issued a summons for a traffic infraction operating after suspension.
