Section 1. 2. Section 321.194, subsection 2, paragraph a, Code 2021, is amended by adding the following new subparagraph:

NEW SUBPARAGRAPH.

(03) If the licensee resides on a farm or is employed for compensation on a farm in this state, the licensee may operate a motor vehicle during the hours of 5:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. for the purpose of assisting the person’s parents, guardians, or employers with farm work or in connection with any farm job, employment, or other farm-related work, including traveling to or from the location of the farm work, provided the licensee operates the vehicle over the most direct and accessible route between the point of origin and the destination and the driving distance between the point of origin and the destination is no more than fifty miles.

Sec.

2. 3. Section 321.194, subsection 2, paragraph a, subparagraph (3), Code 2021, is amended to read as follows:

(3) To a service station for the purpose of refueling, so long as the service station is the station closest to the route on which the licensee is traveling under subparagraph (1), or (2), or (03).

3. 4. Section 321.194, subsection 3, paragraph b, Code 2021, is amended to read as follows:

b. Upon receipt of a statement of necessity, the department shall issue the driver’s license provided the applicant is otherwise eligible for issuance of the license. The fact that the applicant resides at a distance less than one mile from the applicant’s school of enrollment is prima facie evidence of the nonexistence of necessity for the issuance of a license. However, the distance between the applicant’s residence and school of enrollment shall not be considered if the applicant resides on a farm or is employed for compensation on a farm.
