An act relating to traffic violations for illegally passing a school bus

This bill changes how traffic violations for passing stopped school buses are handled in Vermont. It allows school bus drivers to issue civil violation complaints directly to vehicle owners who illegally pass a stopped school bus, rather than requiring a law enforcement officer to issue the ticket. The bill also removes the point assessment penalty for this specific violation from drivers' records. These changes take effect on July 1, 2023, and apply to all motor vehicles operating on public highways when they pass a school bus that has stopped to pick up or drop off children.
