The bill amends the definition of a "pupil transportation vehicle" within the General Laws, specifically in Chapter 31-22.1. The key change is that the maximum seating capacity for these vehicles is increased from eight (8) passengers to ten (10) passengers, plus the operator. This adjustment allows for greater flexibility in transporting students along fixed school transportation routes. The act is set to take effect immediately upon passage.
