AI Summary
This bill allows local education agencies (LEAs), which are school districts, to authorize school security personnel, in addition to law enforcement officers, to review video evidence from cameras installed on the outside of school buses. This evidence is used to determine if another vehicle has illegally passed a stopped school bus that is picking up or dropping off children. The bill clarifies that this new authorization for school security personnel does not prevent LEAs from continuing to work with law enforcement through memorandums of understanding, and both groups can review the evidence. "School safety personnel" is defined to include school safety officers, school resource officers, or other individuals employed by the LEA whose job involves student safety or campus security.
