(A487, R578, H4031)

AN ACT TO AMEND SECTION 56-1-210, CODE OF LAWS OF SOUTH CAROLINA, 1976, RELATING TO EXPIRATION AND RENEWAL OF MOTOR VEHICLE LICENSES, SO AS TO REVISE THE REQUIREMENTS FOR RENEWAL BY PERSONS ON ACTIVE MILITARY DUTY.

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:

License renewal by persons on active military duty

SECTION 1. The last paragraph of Section 56-1-210 of the 1976 Code is amended to read:

"If a person's license expires and he is unable to renew it before its expiration date because he is on active military duty outside this State for a continuous period of at least thirty days immediately before the expiration date or because he is the spouse or dependent living for a continuous period of at least thirty days immediately before the expiration date with a person on active military duty outside this State, within sixty days after returning to this State, the person may renew his license in the manner permitted by this section as though the license had not expired. The department may require proof from the person that he qualifies for renewal of his license under this paragraph. Upon request, the person shall provide the department with a copy of his military service record, a document of his branch of military service showing the date of active military duty outside the State, or other evidence presented by the person showing the dates of service."

Time effective

SECTION 2. This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.

Approved the 14th day of July, 1994.
