Bill > HB0118

This bill amends existing Utah law regarding commercial driver's licenses (CDLs) to require applicants for a CDL to demonstrate sufficient English language proficiency to converse with the public, understand traffic signs, respond to official inquiries, and complete reports, with the division maintaining records of applicants who fail skills tests due to English proficiency and the CDL driver training school they attended. It also clarifies that individuals applying for a CDL must acknowledge this English language requirement, and that the division will retain this acknowledgment. The bill also makes technical changes related to fees for background checks for third-party CDL testers and examiners, and updates references to federal regulations.
