Hawaii HB909 allows non-school vehicles for student transport, funds for buses, and a staggered school start time program.
Hawaii HB909 addresses the school bus driver shortage by authorizing the use of motorcoaches, small buses, and vans for student transport under certain conditions. It allows exemptions for vehicle use when compliance is impractical due to unavailability or economic factors. The bill also appropriates funds for the Department of Education to purchase motorcoaches, small buses, and vans and to incentivize obtaining commercial driver's licenses.
