AB 1151: Driver’s licenses: identification cards.

California · Assembly · 2025–2026 Regular Session · last verified February 3, 2026

What AB 1151 does, verified February 3, 2026

The bill aims to amend the vehicle code to allow individuals 62 years of age or older to apply for a senior citizen identification card using the same form used for cancelling or surrendering a driver's license. This would simplify the process and provide a more streamlined option for seniors to obtain an identification card. The department of motor vehicles would issue an identification card bearing the notation "senior citizen" upon receipt of the amended form. This change would provide a more convenient and accessible way for seniors to obtain an identification card.
