HB 3205 Oregon House · 2025 Regular Session

Relating to vehicles used to transport children from home to school.

HB 3205 allows non-school-bus vehicles (called "school activity vehicles") to transport students directly between home and school, which was previously restricted. It amends Oregon law to explicitly include "home to school" trips in the definition of authorized use for these vehicles, affecting schools and districts using such vehicles for student transportation. The bill clarifies that this applies to vehicles not classified as school buses, private cars used by families, or transit buses, without changing safety standards for these vehicles.
