NOTICE OF REVIEW AND STATEMENT OF CONTINUATION

Concise explanation of the particular statutory provisions under which the rule is enacted and how these provisions authorize or require the rule:

This rule is authorized under Subsection 53-3-505 (1)(d)(i)(ii) which requires the Department of Public safety to make rules regarding fully interactive and non-fully interactive driving simulators for the purpose of completing behind the wheel driver training as required in Subsections 53-3-505.5(2)(b) and (c).

Summary of written comments received during and since the last five-year review of the rule from interested persons supporting or opposing the rule:

There have been no written comments received since the last five-year review.

Reasoned justification for continuation of the rule, including reasons why the agency disagrees with comments in opposition to the rule, if any:

This rule allows to define the difference between a non-fully interactive driving simulator and a fully interactive driving simulator. Therefore, allowing driver education schools to decide if the use of a simulator to help facilitate training in their school would be a benefit to the students. Therefore, this rule should be continued.
