Should New Hampshire lessen the penalty for driving without a driver’s license?

Should New Hampshire lessen the penalty for driving without a driver’s license?

There are a variety of reasons someone might break the law by driving without a valid driver’s license—they let it expire, or their family couldn’t afford drivers’ education courses, for example. If someone drives without a license because they can’t pass a safety test, however, it puts everyone on the road at risk. A 2015 law introduced stricter penalties for those who drive without a license. Now New Hampshire is considering HB 201, a bill to roll back some of thodrvse changes.
