It was introduced on January 3, 2013 and referred to the Senate Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 15, 2013. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On January 31, 2013 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 27, 2013 and was referred to the House Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 23, 2013. The committee met in executive session on May 14, 2013 to vote on its recommendation.
