Rep. Ron Mendive introduced RS 31203 in House Transportation & Defense last Thursday. This bill would allow parents who live in rural areas or in a school district that does not offer driver’s education to teach their own children how to drive. A similar bill passed the Legislature last year, but was vetoed by Gov. Brad Little. This bill narrows the scope to only those who do not have a driver’s ed class available.
The bill was introduced and printed as H531, and awaits a full hearing.
