3/25/03-A bill aimed at cutting down on carloads of teen-agers and late-night joyriding while stepping up their training time failed to pass the Senate.
HB80 won approval in the House in early February by a 37 to 22 vote. It never got full backing in the Senate and was later rejected by a 24 to 16 vote.

2/7/03-House lawmakers have passed a measure aimed at cutting down on carloads of teen-agers and late-night joyriding while stepping up their training time.
HB80 would require completion of a driver's education course or at least 50 hours driving under adult supervision - including at least 10 hours of night driving.
The proposal would prohibit teens from being behind the wheel between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m., unless accompanied by a licensed driver 21 or older, driving to and from work, school or religious activity or an emergency.
Teens would not be allowed to transport multiple passengers under 21, unless accompanied by a licensed driver 21 or older.
At age 17, the driving restriction would be lifted, provided no prior violations, which would delay full driving privileges one year.
The bill is headed to the Senate. For bill status, call (307) 777-6185. In Wyoming, call 1-800-342-9570.
