decal be displayed on any vehicle operated by a person who is under 18 years
of age.
Requires a person to perform community service if he or she fails to properly
display a "New Driver" decal. The original bill applied statewide and to all drivers under 19 years of age, while the
substitute bill creates a pilot program only in Clark County and applies only to drivers under
18 years of age. Additionally, the original bill created a traffic infraction for a person's
failure to display a decal as required, while the substitute bill imposes a community service
requirement if a person fails to display a decal as required. The original bill required the
DOL to issue these decals, and allowed the DOL to charge drivers the cost of producing the decal, while the substitute bill allows private driver training schools and public schools
providing driver education to provide these decals, and it allows the DOL to charge the cost
of producing and issuing the decal. Finally, the substitute bill requires the DOL to provide a
report to the Legislature regarding the implementation of the bill, and the pilot project
expires on July 1, 2020, instead of December 31, 2021, as provided in the original bill.
