New York law puts more limits on who can be hired as school bus drivers
From The New York Times: New York Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo has signed legislation that makes it more difficult for ex-cons to drive school buses. The law adds 26 types of felony convictions that will make a person ineligible to drive a school bus, and raises the number of crimes for which a conviction would warrant a permanent ban from school-bus driving to 58. The law also makes the ban permanent rather than temporary for those convicted of vehicular manslaughter, aggravated vehicular homicide or promoting prostitution.
