Schools get more bus-camera enforcement options

Tennessee school districts that install exterior school-bus cameras must arrange evidence review and stop-arm law enforcement. They can use a written agreement with local police, authorize school safety personnel, or use both at the same time. Under the police-only option, only certified or state-commissioned officers, including school resource officers, can review evidence. Authorized school safety personnel can review evidence and issue violation notices or citations. These personnel include school safety officers, school resource officers, and district employees or contractors with student-safety or school-security duties. The law took effect upon becoming law.
