The bill calls for suspending student driver's licenses if they have ten unexcused absences from school. Principals and district superintendents would have to approve the suspensions. Students younger than 18 who have beginner's permits or licenses would be affected. Students with their license suspended could get it back by returning to school or entering a G-E-D program. The bill now moves to the Senate Transportation Committee. » Find More Articles Related To This One Copyright 2004 by The Associated Press. All rights reserved.
