AI Summary

This bill amends the current law to require that a person applying for a school bus driver's license must have a "clean driving record" at the time of application. The bill defines a "clean driving record" as having: (1) no traffic violations in the previous year; (2) no more than 3 major traffic violations (such as speeding or running a red light) in the previous 5 years; (3) no more than 5 minor traffic violations (such as a parking ticket) in the previous 5 years; and (4) no more than 3 at-fault accidents in the previous 5 years. This is intended to ensure that school bus drivers have a safe driving history before being granted a license.
