SB 1295: An Act amending Title 75 (Vehicles) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in commercial drivers, further providing for purpose and construction of chapter, for definitions and for commercial driver's license qualification standards, providing for English proficiency standard, further providing for nonresident CDL, for application for commercial driver's license and for disqualification and providing for annual report; and imposing penalties.

This bill updates Pennsylvania's commercial driver's license laws to align with federal standards, specifically regarding English proficiency and testing procedures. It requires that all CDL skills tests be conducted in English without the use of interpreters and mandates that applicants demonstrate English proficiency. The legislation also clarifies rules for nonresident drivers, allows for electronic transfer of skills test results from other states, and establishes penalties for submitting false information on CDL applications. Additionally, it defines specific terms related to immigration status and nondomiciled licenses to ensure consistency with federal regulations.
