Bill Summary
Relative to requiring that commercial driver licensing tests be made available in the Portuguese and Spanish languages. Transportation.
AI Summary
This bill requires that commercial driver licensing tests be made available in the Portuguese and Spanish languages, as well as any other language the registrar deems necessary, as a reasonable accommodation for limited-English speaking applicants. However, the tests will not be used to determine the applicant's English language skills, and a request for accommodation will not exempt the applicant from demonstrating sufficient English proficiency to communicate with the public, understand traffic signs, and respond to official inquiries.
