The bill prohibits the department of transportation and the department of public safety from providing information used to impose or collect a civil penalty that results from a violation captured by an ATE system through an existing interstate compact agreement unless the agreement specifically allows or requires that information to be shared or provided for that specific purpose.

The bill requires that prior to July 1, 2021, a local authority using an ATE system must discontinue using the system and remove the system equipment. Effective July 1, 2021, all local ordinances authorizing the use of ATE systems are void. However, the bill provides that any citation issued or mailed pursuant to such an ordinance prior to July 1, 2021, is not invalidated by the bill and must be processed according to the provisions of law under which the citation was authorized. This provision of the bill does not apply to ATE systems exempted from the prohibition, or to any associated ordinance or citation. This provision of the bill takes effect upon enactment.
