Requires school buses that transport students with special needs to be equipped with certain safety features.
This bill requires all New Jersey school buses transporting students with special needs to install three safety features: interior video cameras to monitor student safety, real-time GPS tracking for location/speed, and two-way communication equipment (like cell phones). It directly affects school bus operators and students with special needs by mandating these safety technologies. The bill specifies that collected video footage and GPS data are not considered government records, and it directs the State Board of Education and Motor Vehicle Commission to create rules for installing, using, and retaining this data. Implementation is scheduled for six months after enactment.
