Summary

Existing law authorizes a court to order a continuance of proceedings against a person who has received a notice to appear for a violation of statute relating to the safe operation of a vehicle and subsequently deposits and forfeits bail, pleads guilty or no contest, or is convicted, in consideration for completion of a program for traffic violators, or traffic school. Existing law requires the Department of Motor Vehicles to license traffic violator schools. Existing law prescribes the requirements for a traffic violator school to be licensed, authorizes the department to charge a fee for licensing, and authorizes the department to suspend or revoke a license, as specified. This bill would require the department to conduct a study on the impact of the traffic violator school program on reducing subsequent traffic offenses by a violator. The bill would also require the department to submit a report on the findings of the study to the Legislature on or before January 1, 2020. This bill would also require the department to collect specified data regarding enrollment, completion, and fees from traffic violator schools licensed in the state and to annually report that data to the Legislature.
