Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer has delayed the expiration of Michigan driver's licenses and state ID cards until late July amid the lingering coronavirus pandemic.

An executive order Whitmer extends until July 31st the expiration date of state ID cards, valid driver's licenses and operator endorsements that expired or were set to expire between February first and June 30th.

The order's protections do not apply to motorists with suspended or revoked driver's licenses.

Whitmer's order also suspends penalties for vehicle registration violations and ensures that automobile insurance will continue to cover Michigan drivers.
