    Chapter 12:

      Section: 39:12-5: Instructor's license; motorcycle endorsement; fees.

          
5. No person shall be employed by any such licensee to give instruction in driving a motor vehicle unless he shall be licensed to act as such instructor by the chief administrator. No person shall be employed by such licensee to instruct a motorcycle safety education course as established pursuant to section 1 of P.L.1991, c.452 (C.27:5F-36) unless he has received from the chief administrator a motorcycle safety education instructor endorsement to his instructor's license. The chief administrator shall issue a motorcycle safety education instructor endorsement to an instructor's license if the person meets the requirements set forth in section 2 of P.L.1991, c.452 (C.27:5F-37).

Application for an instructor's license or for a motorcycle safety education instructor endorsement to an instructor's license shall be in writing and shall contain such information as the chief administrator shall require.

The initial fee for an instructor's license shall be $75.00 and a fee for an annual renewal thereof shall be $50. No additional fee shall be charged by the chief administrator for a motorcycle safety education instructor endorsement. The license so issued shall be valid for the calendar year within which it is issued, and renewals shall be for succeeding calendar years.

For the purposes of this section, each applicant for a license shall submit to the chief administrator the applicant's name, address, fingerprints and written consent for a criminal history record background check to be performed. The chief administrator is hereby authorized to exchange fingerprint data with and receive criminal history record information from the State Bureau of Identification in the Division of State Police and the Federal Bureau of Investigation consistent with applicable State and federal laws, rules and regulations, for purposes of facilitating determinations concerning licensure eligibility. The applicant shall bear the cost for the criminal history record background check, including all costs of administering and processing the check. The Division of State Police shall promptly notify the chief administrator in the event a current holder of a license or prospective applicant, who was the subject of a criminal history record background check pursuant to this section, is arrested for a crime or offense in this State after the date the background check was performed.
