Bill Summary
AN ACT To amend Part 5 of Article 22 of Chapter 2 of Title 20 of the Official Code of Georgia Annotated, relating to school buses for elementary and secondary education, so as to provide standards for the establishment of school bus routes; to provide for related matters; to provide for a short title; to repeal conflicting laws; and for other purposes.
AI Summary
This bill, known as "Addy's Law," amends the Georgia code to require public school systems to ensure that any school bus stop where students enter or exit the bus is located on the same side of the road as the bus door. This is intended to improve student safety by avoiding the need for students to cross the road to reach their bus. The bill also includes a provision repealing any existing laws that conflict with its requirements.
