School bus capacity bill passes Maryland House of Delegates, likely to face opposition in the Senate

A bill that regulates school bus capacity passed the House on Thursday, a first for newly appointed Del. Dana Jones, a Democrat from Annapolis.House Bill 87 takes aim at the state’s transportation code, and would require that school buses be routed so that the number of people on the bus never exceeds the manufacturer’s set capacity. If there is an emergency situation that requires that limit to be exceeded, the bill would require that the extra people be removed within a reasonable amount of time.
