What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under this bill, if the Department of Transportation establishes requirements

relating to driver school offices located in residences, DOT may not apply those

requirements to offices to which students and members of the public have no access.

Under current law, DOT licenses driver schools. Applicants for the license must

identify the “driver school office,” the location at which the driver school business is

conducted. This may be a different location than the “driver school classroom,” the

location at which driver training is conducted. Current rules promulgated by DOT

prohibit a driver school office being located at a residence unless the office is

separated from the residence by a wall or partition and is accessible from outside the

residence with a direct entrance.
