while i'm deeply concerned that 'any' court has the ability to transmit directly to the DMV, due to the enormous amount of errors that occur already, in theory, this bill has good intentions.

This bill should be passed. Some parents do not take child safety serious enough and it disturbs me to see a child jumping around in the seats. There need to be more serious consequences.
