H.B. No. 3352 proposes to amend the Education Code by adding Section 1001.1102, which mandates the inclusion of information about construction or maintenance work zones in the curriculum of driver education and driving safety courses. The Texas Commission of Licensing and Regulation is tasked with developing rules that require these courses to cover the dangers associated with violating traffic laws in work zones and the penalties for specific offenses under Section 542.404 of the Transportation Code. Additionally, the commission must consult with the Department of Public Safety while developing these rules.

The bill stipulates that the Texas Commission of Licensing and Regulation must adopt the necessary rules by May 1, 2026, and that all driver education and driving safety courses conducted on or after September 1, 2026, must incorporate the newly required information. The act is set to take effect on September 1, 2025.
