Bill Summary

This bill requires the Chief Administrator of the Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) to make the driver's license examination test available in Italian. In the last few years, the MVC has eliminated the administration of the examination test in several foreign languages, including Italian. Applicants who would have taken the test in Italian may be accompanied by an interpreter who meets certain criteria. Obtaining an interpreter, however, places an additional burden on the applicant. Under the provisions of this bill, the MVC would be required to reinstate a driver's license examination test in Italian.

AI Summary

This bill requires the Chief Administrator of the Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) to offer the driver's license examination test in Italian, in addition to the existing English and other foreign language options. In recent years, the MVC had eliminated the Italian language test option, which placed an additional burden on applicants who would have taken the test in Italian by requiring them to bring an interpreter. This bill reinstates the requirement for the MVC to provide the driver's license examination in Italian.
