This Act adds intentional interference with the operation of a school bus to the offense of disorderly conduct. Interference with a school bus may include boarding a school bus and refusing to exist after being lawfully ordered to do so by the school bus driver; wrongfully restricting the movement of a school bus; or threatening the school bus driver or any passenger entering, leaving, or waiting for a school bus. A student or passenger otherwise authorized to be on the school bus in the ordinary course of business may not be guilty of disorderly conduct for intentional interference with the operation of a school bus. This Act comes from a recommendation by the Public School Transportation Committee. According to the Committee, many school bus drivers encounter irate individuals during their daily routes. This Act is based on a law from South Carolina that the Committee reviewed and endorsed.
