data source that there are no stops, holds, or other impediments to
its issuance. The examining officer may request to see evidence of

to a driver, if the person requests and appears at a hearing
conducted by the department, the department shall give due
consideration to the amount of use or mileage traveled in the
operation of a motor vehicle.

appears at a hearing and is found to have a driving record violation
point count of six or more points in 12 months, eight or more points
in 24 months, or 10 or more points in 36 months is presumed to be a
prima facie negligent operator. However, the higher point count does
not apply if the department reasonably determines that four or more
points in 12 months, six or more points in 24 months, or eight or
more points in 36 months are attributable to the driver's operation
of a vehicle requiring only a class C license, and not requiring a
certificate or endorsement, or a class M license.
   (2) For purposes of this subdivision, each point assigned pursuant
to Section 12810 shall be valued at one and one-half times the value
otherwise required by that section for each violation reasonably
determined by the department to be attributable to the driver's
operation of a vehicle requiring a class A or class B license, or
requiring a certificate or endorsement described in this section.
   (c) The department may require a negligent operator whose driving
privilege is suspended or revoked pursuant to this section to submit
proof of financial responsibility, as defined in Section 16430, on or
before the date of reinstatement following the suspension or

with the department for three years following that date of
reinstatement.

class of license for which the licensee has qualified and shall
contain the distinguishing number assigned to the applicant, the date
of expiration, the true full name, age, and mailing address of the
licensee, a brief description and engraved picture or photograph of
the licensee for the purpose of identification, and space for the
signature of the licensee.
   (B) Each license shall also contain a space for the endorsement of
a record of each suspension or revocation thereof.
   (C) The department shall use whatever process or processes, in the
issuance of engraved or colored licenses, that prohibit, as near as
possible, the ability to alter or reproduce the license, or prohibit
the ability to superimpose a picture or photograph on the license
without ready detection.
   (2) In addition to the requirements of paragraph (1), a license
issued to a person under 18 years of age shall display the words
"provisional until age 18."
   (b) (1) On and after July 1, 2011, an application for an original
or renewal driver's license or identification card shall contain a
space for the applicant to enroll in the Donate Life California Organ
and Tissue Donor Registry. The application shall include check boxes
for an applicant to mark either (A) Yes, add my name to the donor
registry or (B) I do not wish to register at this time.
   (2) The department shall inquire verbally of an applicant applying
in person for an original or renewal driver's license or
identification card at a department office as to whether the
applicant wishes to enroll in the Donate Life California Organ and
Tissue Donor Registry. Failure or refusal to answer this question or
check a box on the application form shall not be a basis for the
department to deny an applicant a driver's license or identification
card.
   (3) The following language shall be included with the question
required by paragraph (1):

   "Marking 'Yes' adds your name to the Donate Life California Organ
and Tissue Donor Registry and a pink 'donor' dot will appear on your
license. If you wish to remove your name from the registry you must
contact Donate Life California (see back); DMV can remove the pink
dot from your licenses but cannot remove you from the registry."

   (4) The back of the application shall contain the following
statement:

   "If, on the front of this form, you marked 'Yes' to register as an
organ and tissue donor you are legally authorizing the recovery of
organs and tissues in the event of your death. Registering as a donor
will not affect your medical treatment in any way. As outlined in
the California Anatomical Gift Act, your authorization is legally
binding and, unless the donor is under 18 years of age, your decision
does not require the consent of any other person. For registered
donors under 18 years of age, the legal guardian shall make the final
donation decision. You may limit your donation to specific organs or
tissues, place usage restrictions, for example transplantation or
research, obtain more information about donation, or remove your name
from the registry on the Internet Web site of Donate Life
California: www.donateLIFEcalifornia.org."

years of age may register as a donor. However, the legal guardian of
that person shall make the final decision regarding the donation.
   (6) The department shall collect donor designation information on
all applications for an original or renewal driver's license or
identification card.

his or her intent to enroll in the organ donation program pursuant to
this section.

transmit to Donate Life California, a nonprofit organization
established and designated as the California Organ and Tissue Donor

all of the following information from every application that
indicates the applicant's decision to enroll in the organ donation
program:
   (A) His or her true full name.
   (B) His or her residence or mailing address.
   (C) His or her year of birth.
   (D) His or her California driver's license number or
identification card number.
   (9) (A) A person who applies for an original or renewal driver's
license or identification card may designate a voluntary contribution
of two dollars ($2) for the purpose of promoting and supporting
organ and tissue donation. This contribution shall be collected by
the department, and treated as a voluntary contribution to Donate
Life California and not as a fee for the issuance of a driver's
license or identification card.
   (B) The department may use the donations collected pursuant to
this paragraph to cover its actual administrative costs incurred
pursuant to paragraphs (6) to (8), inclusive. The department shall
deposit all revenue derived pursuant to this paragraph and remaining
after the department's deduction for administrative costs in the
Donate Life California Trust Subaccount, that is hereby created in
the Motor Vehicle Account in the State Transportation Fund.
Notwithstanding Section 13340 of the Government Code, all revenue in

fiscal years, to the Controller for allocation to Donate Life
California and shall be expended for the purpose of increasing
participation in organ donation programs.

   (ii) Method of application (field office, online, or mail).
   (iii) Donor registration status.
   (iv) Zip code.
   (v) Gender.

of the Government Code.

requirement for submitting the annual report to the appropriate
policy and fiscal committees of the Legislature imposed under
subparagraph (C) is inoperative four years after the date the first
annual report is due.
   (10) The enrollment form shall be posted on the Internet Web sites
for the department and the California Health and Human Services
Agency.
   (11) The enrollment shall constitute a legal document pursuant to
the Uniform Anatomical Gift Act (Chapter 3.5 (commencing with Section
7150) of Part 1 of Division 7 of the Health and Safety Code) and
shall remain binding after the donor's death despite any express
desires of next of kin opposed to the donation. Except as provided in
paragraph (5) of subdivision (b), the donation does not require the
consent of any other person.
   (12) Donate Life California shall ensure that all additions and
deletions to the California Organ and Tissue Donor Registry,
established pursuant to Section 7150.90 of the Health and Safety
Code, shall occur within 30 days of receipt.
