A 667 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Authorizes certain individuals to drive Type S school buses.

This bill allows individuals with a standard non-commercial driver's license (after completing required training) to operate Type S school buses without needing a commercial driver license, passenger endorsement, or school bus endorsement. Type S school buses are defined as vehicles designed for student transportation with a maximum seating capacity of nine passengers or less (excluding the driver) that are operated by schools or under school contract. School districts or transportation contractors must provide specific training on safety, student interaction, and other required topics before such drivers operate these vehicles. The bill also establishes penalties for operating while license is suspended/revoked and outlines procedures for suspending driving privileges for traffic violations.
