The application shall be signed and verified before a traffic officer, a duly authorized agent of the department or a person duly authorized to administer oaths. A signature and verification under this paragraph may be provided electronically in a format designated by the department. 343.15(1)(b)(b) The adult sponsor under par.

(2) against a sponsor. Swanigan v. State Farm Insurance Co., 99 Wis. 2d 179, 299 N.W.2d 234 (1980). 343.15 AnnotationA Pierringer release of a minor barred an action for contribution by nonsettling defendants against a sponsor who was not joined in the action by the plaintiff. Jackson v. Ozaukee County, 111 Wis. 2d 462, 331 N.W.2d 338 (1983). 343.15 AnnotationSub. (2) does not violate the constitutional guarantees of due process or equal protection. Mikaelian v. Woyak, 121 Wis. 2d 581, 360 N.W.2d 706 (Ct. App. 1984). 343.15 AnnotationParent sponsors are liable under this section for punitive damages assessed against their child. Evidence of the sponsors’ wealth is not admissible for purposes of assessing punitive damages against an underage driver. Franz v. Brennan, 150 Wis. 2d 1, 440 N.W.2d 562 (1989). 343.15 AnnotationThe suspension of a minor’s license does not relieve the sponsoring adult from liability if after suspension of the license the minor, while operating without a license, causes injury. Relief from liability can only be had by applying for cancellation of the license under sub. (3). Johnson v. Schlitt, 211 Wis. 2d 832, 565 N.W.2d 305 (Ct. App. 1997), 96-1304. 343.15 AnnotationThe scope of parental liability under this section does not extend to a child’s conduct distinct from operating a vehicle. The child’s shooting of a gun from a car while driving was outside the ambit of the statute. Reyes v. Greatway Insurance Co., 227 Wis. 2d 357, 597 N.W.2d 687 (1999), 97-1587. 343.15 AnnotationParents are both liable under this statute when one signs as a sponsor. It is irrelevant that one withdrew as the sponsor when the other signed the documents to assume sponsorship. Beerbohm v. State Farm Mutual Automobile Insurance Co., 2000 WI App 105, 235 Wis. 2d 182, 612 N.W.2d 338, 99-1784. 343.15 AnnotationAs sub. (2) (a) excludes joint legal custody under s. 767.001 (1s) from the meaning of custody under sub. (2) (b), custody in sub. (2) (b) can only mean the natural legal custody that married parents share. Because divorced parents do not share that type of custody, liability may not be imputed to the non-sponsoring parent under sub. (2) (b). LaCount v. Salkowski, 2002 WI App 287, 258 Wis. 2d 635, 654 N.W.2d 295, 02-0630. 343.16343.16 Examination of applicants; reexamination of licensed persons. 343.16(1)(1) Required testing of knowledge and driving skills. 343.16(1)(a)1.1.

In administering the knowledge test, the department shall attempt to accommodate any special needs of the applicant. 343.16(1)(a)2.c.c. Except as may be required by the department for an “H” or “S” endorsement, the knowledge test is not intended to be a test for literacy or English language proficiency. This subdivision does not prohibit the department from requiring an applicant to correctly read and understand highway signs. 343.16(1)(a)3.3. The department shall not administer a driving skills test to a person applying for authorization to operate “Class M” vehicles who has failed 2 previous such skills tests unless the person has successfully completed a rider course approved by the department. The department may, by rule, exempt certain persons from the rider course requirement of this paragraph. The department may not require a person who is applying for authorization to operate “Class M” vehicles and who has successfully completed a rider course approved by the Wisconsin department of transportation motorcycle safety program to hold an instruction permit under s. 343.07 (4) prior to the department’s issuance of a license authorizing the operation of “Class M” vehicles.
