Oklahoma § 47-6-110.2

• Jurisdiction: Oklahoma
• Title 47: Motor Vehicles

Text

A. Service Oklahoma shall implement a procedure for computerized finger imaging by means of an inkless finger image scanning device and shall require every applicant for an original, renewal, or replacement driver license or identification card to submit to finger imaging for the purposes of proof of identity and to ensure the security of the driver license or identification card issued to the applicant. If the finger image of a person over sixty-five (65) years of age cannot be scanned and the issuing agent can personally verify the individual’s identity with alternative identification, the finger imaging shall be overridden. Means must be provided to trace to the agent who authorized the override. B. No unemancipated person under eighteen (18) years of age shall be issued a driver license or identification card by Service Oklahoma unless an authorization form, prescribed and furnished by Service Oklahoma, or notarized affidavit authorizing the finger imaging of the person and signed by the legal custodial parent, legal guardian, or legal custodian of the person, is in the possession of Service Oklahoma. C. No law enforcement agency of the state or federal government other than the Department of Public Safety shall have access to any information collected through the use of computerized finger imaging without first obtaining a court order from a judge of competent jurisdiction; provided, however, the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation shall have access to such imaging for the purpose of identifying a person who is deceased, missing, or endangered. Each application for an order authorizing the access to any information collected through the use of computerized finger imaging shall be made in writing upon oath or affirmation to a judge of competent jurisdiction. Each application shall establish probable cause for belief that a named individual is committing, has committed, or is about to commit a particular violation of law. D. Service Oklahoma shall adopt rules as may be necessary to carry out the provisions of this section.
