Relates to requiring seat belts on charter buses for persons age 8 through 16

This bill requires that passengers aged 8 through 16 wear seat belts on charter buses, while passengers 16 and older must also be restrained by approved safety belts. It defines a charter bus as a vehicle transporting a group of people for a specific trip under a single contract and clarifies that violations by children under 16 will result in a summons issued to their parent or guardian rather than the child. The legislation also establishes an affirmative defense for parents if the bus was not equipped with seat belts that were visible, accessible, or in good working order, and it sets a civil fine of up to $50 for violating these new requirements.
