House Bill 593, sponsored by Doggett, amends Tennessee Code Annotated regarding the mileage limit for school buses. Specifically, it modifies Section 49-6-2109(b)(2) by deleting the previous mileage limit of "two hundred thousand (200,000) miles" and replacing it with a new limit of "two hundred thirty thousand (230,000) miles."
