Episode Synopsis

The source outlines changes related to traffic stops and crime lab operations. Specifically, a new law requires drivers lawfully stopped to provide specific identification information like their name, address, date of birth, and driver's license upon request, with refusal being an offense. Additionally, another bill mandates that state and local funded accredited crime labs utilize an online portal designated by DPS for improved tracking of forensic evidence and results, although exceptions are possible. These legislative changes aim to enhance officer identification capabilities and streamline forensic evidence management.
