Reviewer note: Composed 2026-10-14 (California T4 Stanislaus build 2026-10-14) from BenchPath custody ca/t4/ca-stanislaus/pages/divisions__traffic__sign-traffic-school.html (the page as fetched 2026-10-14; 654170 bytes, sha256 0e41296d8637fd02bc25c93f2859d573fe1b3a30eec1bf7af450987af8e921cd) with the Orange HTML composer (compose-site.py, the Judicial Council theme's area): the article's content sections (section.jcc-section), news bodies (div.jcc-news-full) and title banners (div.jcc-hero; the first banner's heading, the page title, is chrome) - the site header, menus, breadcrumb and footer lie outside them; each block starts a line and each table cell is set on its own line; chrome removed: 2 items (the page title, “Sign Up for Traffic School”, and a screen-reader-only label “Image”); proof (the multiset of non-space characters equals the containers' text less chrome and scripts) passes. Review note: The page gives two telephone lines - option 2 from 8:15 am to 3:00 pm and option 1 from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.; its Spanish translation gives option 1, 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., in both places and sends commercial drivers to DMV Driver Safety offices rather than the Mandatory Action Unit.
