Motor Vehicle Law.

Catalog description

This course is designed to build teacher candidates' awareness and understanding of Montana's motor vehicle laws and regulations, as well as of the Uniform Vehicle Code. Topics include how laws are made, enacted and enforced, the frequency and severity of violations and their impact on society, the consequences resulting from violations, and how to read and research Montana Code Annotated. The elements and the level of proof needed for arrest and prosecution are also introduced. Graduate credit requirements are described in the course syllabus. If this class is taken at the 500 level, it is a graduate course and expectations for student performance are at an advanced level. Evaluation of course requirements is more rigorous than at the lower division section of this course.
