Expands duties of Office of School Bus Safety.

New Jersey Senate Bill S3430 (S 3430) expands the responsibilities of the Office of School Bus Safety to enhance student transportation safety. The bill requires the office to verify school bus driver training certifications, maintain a list of contractors barred from bidding on transportation contracts, and coordinate with the Motor Vehicle Commission to share safety data. It mandates annual reports to the legislature detailing safety recommendations, enforcement actions, and progress on past safety improvements. These changes directly affect school districts, transportation contractors, and state agencies overseeing school bus operations.
