Drive Safe Act Reintroduced in Congress
The DRIVE Safe Act, S. 659/H.R. 1745, has been reintroduced in Congress’ current session by Senator Todd Young (R-IN) and Representative Trey Hollingsworth (R-IN). The bill would create a path for drivers under 21 to obtain an interstate commercial driver’s license through an apprenticeship program that requires driver apprentices to complete two probationary periods that include 400 hours of on-duty time and 240 hours of driving time with an experienced driver in the cab. IWLA is a member of the DRIVE Safe Act Coalition supporting the bill.
