Bill Summary

This bill requires the Chief Administrator of the Motor Vehicle Commission (MVC) to make the driver's license examination test available in Italian. In the last few years, the MVC has eliminated the administration of the examination test in several foreign languages, including Italian. Applicants who would have taken the test in Italian may be accompanied by an interpreter who meets certain criteria. Obtaining an interpreter, however, places an additional burden on the applicant. Under the provisions of this bill, the MVC would be required to reinstate a driver's license examination test in Italian.
