The ACLU of Maryland supports HB 1375, which would require the MVA to adopt regulations requiring that classroom instruction for the driver education program include instruction on (1) the right to say no to the search of a vehicle; (2) the right to not admit to speeding or any other traffic violation; and (3) other rights of drivers who are involved in a traffic stop. MVA must also include content on the rights of drivers who are involved in traffic stops in the State Driver’s Manual.
