Description

Passing stopped school buses; mailing of summons; rebutting presumption. Provides that a locality that has authorized by ordinance the installation and operation of a video-monitoring system on school buses for recording violations of unlawfully passing a stopped school bus may execute a summons for such violation by mailing a copy of the summons to the owner of a vehicle that unlawfully passed a stopped school bus. The bill also provides a means by which the existing presumption that the registered owner of the vehicle was the vehicle operator at the time of the violation can be rebutted and requires that this information be included with the mailing of the summons. The bill gives the summoned person 30 business days from the mailing of the summons to inspect information collected by a video-monitoring system in connection with the violation. Read the Bill »

THIS IS A BILL THAT WAS DEALING WITH THE ISSUANCE OF MAILING SUMMONS TO THE INDIVIDUAL FOR PASSING A SCHOOL BUS. THE CAMERAS ON THE BUS WOULD CAPTURE THE INDIVIDUAL PASSING THE VEHICLES AND THEN THEY WOULD BE ABLE TO MAIL A SUMMONS TO THAT INDIVIDUAL THAT VIOLATED THAT LAW AND IT WAS A CIVIL VIOLATION. THE HOUSE SUBSTITUTE TAKES OUT A LOT OF LANGUAGE THAT DIRECTS AND INSTRUCTS HOW THE SUMMONS ARE TO BE ISSUED AND THE REBUTTABLE OFFEND AND I ASK THAT WE REJECT THE HOUSE SUBSTITUTE.
