What’s in it
AI summary People with a special minor's driver's license would be allowed to drive to their jobs between 5:00 a.m. and 10:00 p.m. instead of being allowed to drive for farm work. This change applies to minors traveling on the most direct route between their home or school and their workplace. Additionally, the rule that says a student does not need a license if they live less than one mile from their school would be removed.1
