  the Judicial Bureau shall accept as evidence a printout attested to by the law enforcement
  officer as the person’s motor vehicle record showing convictions and resulting license

  certified copy of the person’s motor vehicle record from the Department of Motor Vehicles
  to establish the permissive inference. (Added 1991, No. 55, § 12; amended 1997, No. 117 (Adj. Sess.), § 8a; 1999, No. 110 (Adj. Sess.), § 3; 1999, No. 160 (Adj. Sess.), § 13; 2001, No. 75 (Adj. Sess.), § 6, eff. May 15, 2002; 2003, No. 54, § 13.)
