Vehicles: traffic violator school program.

Existing law provides for the licensing and administration by the Department of Motor Vehicles of traffic violator schools, operators, and instructors. Existing law declares the intent of the Legislature to, among other things, make the traffic violator school (TVS) program as effective as possible by developing a comprehensive system of statewide regulation of traffic violator schools, thereby ensuring uniform curricula and consistency in oversight and monitoring. Existing law, until January 1, 2016, requires, by December 31 of each year, the Department of Motor Vehicles to report to the Legislature on the status and progress of the TVS program and of its efforts to implement a comprehensive system of statewide regulation of traffic violator schools, and requires the report to include, among other things, information on the number and type of programs licensed. This bill, until January 1, 2016, would instead require the department to report to the Legislature by December 15 of each year.
