8-2,150. Commercial driver's licenses; diversion agreements or masking of imposition of judgement not allowed. (a) A driver or a holder of a commercial driver's license may not enter into a diversion agreement in lieu of further criminal proceedings that would prevent such person's conviction for any violation, in any type of motor vehicle, of a state or local traffic control law, except a parking violation, from appearing on the person's record, whether the person was convicted for an offense committed in the state where the person is licensed or another state.(b) For purposes of subsection (a), a person shall be considered a holder of a commercial driver's license if the person was a holder of a commercial driver's license at the time the person was arrested or was issued a citation and shall remain a holder of a commercial driver's license even if the person surrenders the commercial driver's license after the arrest or citation.(c) (1) A prosecuting attorney as defined in K.S.A. 22-2202, and amendments thereto, shall not mask or defer imposition of judgment or allow an individual to enter into a diversion program that would prevent a commercial learner's permit or commercial driver's license holder's conviction from appearing on the CDLIS driver record of any violation of a state or local traffic control law that occurred in any type of motor vehicle. The provisions of this subsection shall apply regardless of whether the driver was convicted for an offense committed in the state where the driver is licensed or in any another state.(2) The provisions of this subsection shall not apply to parking, vehicle weight or vehicle defect violations.(d) The provisions of this section shall be a part of and supplemental to the Kansas uniform commercial drivers' license act.History: L. 2003, ch. 42, § 2; L. 2010, ch. 146, § 7; L. 2022, ch. 80, § 10; July 1.
