Bill Summary

An act to amend Section 51220.1 of the Education Code, relating to pupil instruction.

AI Summary

This bill makes a minor, nonsubstantive change to existing California law regarding automobile driver education for students in grades 7 through 12. The current law mandates that driver education courses teach students about the Vehicle Code, traffic laws, personal responsibility, the consequences of accidents, and safe driving practices, including the dangers of alcohol and drug use while operating a vehicle. This bill simply changes the word "specified" to "prescribed" in the section of the Education Code that outlines the curriculum requirements for driver education, specifically concerning the instruction on the dangers of consuming alcohol or drugs in connection with driving.
