AN ACT CONCERNING THE CREATION OF A MODEL DRIVER EDUCATION CURRICULUM.

HB 5860 requires Connecticut's Department of Education and Department of Transportation to develop a standardized driver education curriculum for high schools. This model curriculum would be available for local and regional school boards to adopt or adapt for their driver education programs. The bill directly affects high schools and their driver education courses by providing a state-created framework. It does not change current licensing requirements but establishes a recommended educational standard for classroom instruction. The bill focuses solely on creating this curriculum resource, with no provisions for implementation timelines or funding.
