Requires school buses that transport students with special needs to be equipped with certain safety features.

S 894 requires school buses transporting students with special needs in New Jersey to install three safety features: an interior video camera for monitoring student safety, real-time GPS tracking for location/speed, and two-way communication equipment. The bill specifies that collected video footage and GPS data are not considered government records under state disclosure laws. It directs the State Board of Education and Motor Vehicle Commission to create rules for installing, using, and retaining this data, including retention time limits. The law applies specifically to school buses serving students with special needs and takes effect six months after enactment.
