§47-6-111.
A. The Department of Public Safety shall, upon payment of the required
fee, issue to every applicant qualifying therefor a Class A, B, C or D
license or identification card as applied for, which license or card
shall bear thereon a distinguishing number assigned to the licensee or
cardholder, date of issuance and date of expiration of the license or
card, the full name, signature, date of birth, mailing address, sex,
and a color photograph of the licensee or cardholder. The Department
may cancel the distinguishing number, when that distinguishing number
is another person's Social Security number, assign a new
distinguishing number, and issue a new license or identification card
without charge to the licensee or cardholder. The Department may
promulgate rules for inclusion of the height and a brief description
of the licensee or cardholder on the face of the card or license, and
for the provision of a small decal for attachment to the card or
license, identifying the licensee or cardholder as deaf or
hard-of-hearing. The Department of Public Safety may authorize all
motor license agents to accept applications for the license or card
immediately upon payment of the required fee in accordance with the
rules promulgated by the Department of Public Safety. The Department
of Public Safety shall develop an alternative procedure whereby an
individual applying for a new or renewal Class D license who
satisfactorily demonstrates to the Department the inability to appear
personally to be photographed, shall be issued a license or card
bearing the words "Valid Without Photo"; provided, however, only
persons with legitimate religious objection to being photographed may
be issued a new or renewal Class A, B or C license without a
photograph and bearing the words "Valid Without Photo".
B. The Department may issue a temporary permit to an applicant for a
driver license permitting such applicant to operate a motor vehicle
while the Department is completing its investigation and determination
of all facts relative to such applicant's privilege to receive a
license. Such permit must be in the immediate possession of the driver
while operating a motor vehicle, and it shall be invalid when the
applicant's driver license has been issued or for good cause has been
refused.
C. The Department may issue a restricted commercial driver license to
seasonal drivers eighteen (18) years of age or older for any of the
following specific farm-related service industries:
1. Farm retail outlets and suppliers;
2. Agri-chemical businesses;
3. Custom harvesters; and
4. Livestock feeders.
The applicant shall hold a valid Oklahoma driver license and shall
meet all the requirements for a commercial driver license except for
the commercial driver license skills and knowledge tests. The
restricted commercial driver license shall not exceed a total of one
hundred eighty (180) days within any twelve-month period.
The restricted commercial driver license shall not be valid for
operators of commercial motor vehicles beyond one hundred fifty (150)
miles from the place of business or the farm currently being served.
Such license shall be limited to Class B and Class C vehicles. Holders
of such licenses who transport hazardous materials which are required
to be placarded shall be limited to the following:
1. Diesel fuel in quantities of one thousand (1,000) gallons or less;
2. Liquid fertilizers in vehicles with total capacities of three
thousand (3,000) gallons or less; and

No other placarded hazardous materials shall be transported by holders
of such licenses.
