AI Summary

This bill expands the authority of service cooperatives, which are organizations that help school districts share resources and services, to conduct third-party road tests for school bus drivers. Previously, this authority was limited to school districts and school bus companies themselves. The bill clarifies that "road test" includes any necessary endorsement tests to operate a school bus and allows service cooperatives to administer these tests to employees of member school districts that own or operate school buses. This change aims to streamline the testing process and potentially increase the availability of certified school bus drivers.
