Hawaii HB1160 amends school vehicle transportation regulations to allow exemptions for non-school vehicles under certain conditions.

Hawaii HB1160 modifies the state's school vehicle transportation regulations to allow exemptions for non-school vehicles, such as motorcoaches, small buses, and vans, when specific conditions are met. These exemptions can be granted by the Department of Education, the State Public Charter School Commission, and a board of independent schools. Exemptions are limited to situations where compliance with school bus regulations is impractical due to unavailability of school vehicles or economic factors.
