Summary of Issue

There is currently no recommended fine amount in Operations Policy 17 for drivers who are issued citations of 391.11(b)(2) after failing the English Language Proficiency ELP requirements.

Justification or Need

Court systems use Operation Policy 17 as a guide when assessing fines for citations issued during inspections. There is currently no recommended fine amount in Operations Policy 17 addressing violations of 391.11(b)(2) when a driver is issued a citation for failing the English Language Proficiency ELP requirements.

Request for Action

I request CVSA members vote to establish a recommended fine amount for drivers who receive citations for 391.11(b)(2) Failing the English Language Proficiency ELP requirements. Once a fine amount is determined, add it to the recommended fine schedule in Operations Policy 17.
