What’s in it
between the licensee’s residence, schools of enrollment, bus stops, and sites, facilities, or schools designated by the licensee’s district or school of enrollment for the accommodation of the school’s extracurricular activities, with certain limitations. Additionally, if the licensee resides on a farm or is employed for compensation on a farm in this state, the licensee is authorized to operate a motor vehicle for the purpose of assisting the licensee’s parents, guardians, or employers with farm work or in connection with any farm job, employment, or other farm-related work, including traveling to or from the location of the farm work, provided the licensee operates the vehicle over the most direct and accessible route between the point of origin and the destination and the driving distance between the point of origin and the destination is no more than miles.
Read the full explanation
A licensee may also operate a motor vehicle to a service station along the associated routes. over the most direct and accessible route between the licensee’s residence or school of enrollment and the licensee’s place of employment, provided the driving distance between the licensee’s place of employment and the nearest point on the route on which the licensee is otherwise authorized to travel is no more than miles. Under current law, a special minor’s driver’s license application must be accompanied by a statement from the applicant’s school of enrollment certifying that a need exists for the license. The fact that an applicant resides at a distance less than one mile from the applicant’s school of enrollment is prima facie evidence of the nonexistence of necessity for the issuance of the license. However, if an applicant resides or is employed for compensation on a farm, the distance between the applicant’s residence and school cannot be considered. The bill does not amend these provisions.194 is punishable by a scheduled fine of $70.
