Bill > S1830

This bill clarifies that for the purposes of enhanced penalties under criminal drug laws related to "school zones," a "school bus" includes any bus that is owned and operated by a board of education or by a private contractor hired to transport students to and from school or school-related activities. This means that drug offenses committed on or near these types of buses will be subject to the same stricter penalties as offenses committed on school property or within 1,000 feet of it.
