Relating to the enforcement of the prohibition on passing a school bus using images and video from a school bus infraction detection system.

HB 3034 allows Texas school districts and open-enrollment charter schools to use camera systems on school buses to detect drivers passing stopped buses, and permits them to use the recorded video as evidence for issuing citations. The bill amends traffic code to specifically exempt these school bus camera systems from general restrictions on using traffic camera footage for enforcement. This directly affects school districts (who can now implement these systems) and drivers who pass school buses (who may face citations based on the footage). The key provision creates a targeted exception in traffic enforcement laws to improve school bus safety.
