OH SB211

Allows judges to waive mandatory license suspensions for juveniles convicted of second or third traffic violations if the person completes an advanced driver improvement program and shows hardship regarding employment, education, training, or treatment.

Requires completion of an advanced juvenile driver improvement program with minimum 2 hours classroom instruction (driving physics, vehicle dynamics, vision techniques, teen driver statistics) and 4 hours emergency driving skills training in a closed-course facility before suspension waiver eligibility.

Suspension waiver requires court finding of reasonable cause that the suspension would seriously affect the person's ability to continue employment, educational training, vocational training, or treatment.

Establishes that judges can only waive suspensions for second or third violations if certain conditions are met, including that the person did not previously petition for waiver on an earlier violation without receiving one.

Maintains existing juvenile driver improvement program standards requiring minimum 5 hours classroom instruction covering driver skills and traffic law information, with successful program completion and passing of driver's license examination required for license reinstatement.
