Plain-English Summary

This bill would require commercial truck and bus drivers to demonstrate English language proficiency to ensure they can read road signs, understand safety regulations, and communicate with law enforcement and other drivers. The requirement would affect anyone seeking to obtain or renew a commercial driver's license, potentially making it harder for non-English speakers to work in the trucking and transportation industry. The goal is to improve road safety by ensuring all commercial drivers can understand critical safety information.
