What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, the Department of Transportation administers a safe-ride

grant program under which it may award grants to any county, municipality, or

nonprofit corporation to cover the costs of transporting, from a bar or other

retail-licensed premises to a residence, a person suspected of being too intoxicated

to legally drive. The grant amount cannot exceed 50 percent of the costs necessary

to provide this service.

This bill increases the permissible grant amount under the safe-ride grant

program from 50 percent to 80 percent of the costs necessary to provide the service.
