Bill > H0628

This bill amends existing Idaho law concerning the Parent-Student On-Road Driver's Training Program, specifically focusing on the requirements for students to participate in and complete driver's education. Key changes include removing the restriction that parent-led driver's training is only allowed for students in rural districts or those whose schools don't offer a program, and also removing the requirement for students to use the Idaho Digital Learning Alliance online driver education course, allowing them to use any state-approved online driver's training course. The bill also clarifies that a parent or legal guardian can provide the behind-the-wheel instruction if they hold a valid driver's license and have a clean driving record for the past two years, and that more than one qualifying parent or guardian can provide this training. The bill also includes an emergency clause, meaning it will take effect immediately upon passage and approval.
