Bill Summary
AN ACT relating to traffic laws; authorizing a school district to install and use a school bus infraction detection system on school buses to enforce certain provisions of law; requiring a peace officer of a traffic enforcement agency having jurisdiction over the location in which such school buses operate to review certain evidence detected by the school bus infraction detection system before a civil infraction citation is issued; establishing requirements relating to the issuance of a civil infraction citation based on evidence detected by a school bus infraction detection system; requiring the destruction of any photograph or recorded image produced by a school bus infraction detection system after a certain period of time; establishing certain requirements for a hearing relating to a civil infraction citation issued for a violation detected by a school bus infraction detection system; and providing other matters properly relating thereto.
AI Summary
This bill authorizes school districts to install and use school bus infraction detection systems (electronic cameras) on school buses to enforce laws against drivers who illegally pass stopped school buses. The systems will capture photographic or digital evidence of violations, which will then be reviewed by a local traffic enforcement agency before a civil infraction citation is issued. Key provisions include requiring school districts to conduct a 30-day public awareness campaign before fully enforcing citations, mandating that peace officers review all evidence before issuing a citation, and establishing specific requirements for how citations are processed. The bill specifies that violations detected by these systems are not considered moving traffic violations and will not result in demerit points on a driver's license. The school district will receive the administrative fines collected, which must be used to support school bus safety infrastructure, system maintenance, or related enforcement costs. Additionally, each school district using such a system must submit an annual report to the Legislature detailing the number of citations issued, revenue collected, and data on the system's effectiveness in reducing violations. The law aims to improve student safety by creating a systematic approach to detecting and penalizing drivers who illegally pass stopped school buses.
