(e) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (a) to (d), in-
clusive, of this section, any student fifteen years of age or older
enrolled in a high school or junior high school course in driver educa-
tion and training, may operate a dual control motor vehicle without
obtaining an instruction and examination permit, when such student
is under instruction and accompanied by a qualified driver training
instructor of said course. [Any person who presents to the Com-
missioner of Motor Vehicles a certificate of satisfactory completion
of a high school or junior high school course in driver education and
training within one year after the date of completion of the course,
and who pays a fee of five dollars ($5.00), may take the final exami-
nation for an operator's or chauffeur's license without first obtaining
an instruction and examination permit.]

The Commissioner of Motor Vehicles may accept such A certificate
as proof of such applicant's knowledge of the traffic laws of the
State without further examination as to such knowledge. Four dol-
lars ($4.00) of said fee shall go into a special fund in the State
treasury known as the Driver Education Fund, which monies shall be
accumulated until expended as provided in this section. Out of such
funds from and after July 1, 1962, the Department of Education shall
provide for driver education for public high school students in the
various counties and Baltimore City. The Department of Education
shall apportion the revenues in the fund to the various subdivisions
on the basis of the number of students enrolled in the driver training
program in the respective subdivisions. The balance of said funds
shall not revert to the general treasury, but shall be dedicated and
held for driver education.

Sec. 2. And be it further enacted, That this Act shall take effect
June 1, 1967.

Approved April 14, 1967.
