COMMITTEE ACTION:  Voted "do pass" by the Committee on
Transportation by a vote of 7 to 0.

Currently, any record of disposition in any court proceeding

proceeding by the clerk of the court in which the proceeding was
held or, at the written direction of the patrol, to the
Department of Revenue.  This bill specifies that the department
